Difference between revisions of "Arthur Edward Waite"

Waite is best known for his involvement with the [[Rider-Waite Tarot]] deck, first published in 1910, with illustrations by Golden Dawn member [[Pamela Colman Smith]]. Waite authored the deck's companion volume, the ''[[The Key to the Tarot]]'', republished in expanded form in 1911 as the ''Pictorial Key to the Tarot'', a guide to Tarot reading. The Rider–Waite–Smith tarot was notable for illustrating all 78 cards fully, at a time when only the 22 Major Arcana were typically illustrated.
