1-I always thought that is a very good exercise to keep in mind other historical decks of TdM to do a comparison with regard to one given as in this case Noblet ( 1650 )
When I want to post I first open my "TdM image bank" of my pen drive and then begin to cross details between them.
We have some parameter or TdM crossroads if you let me say.
a-Noblet ( 1650 )
b-Dodal ( 1710-1715)
c-Conver ( 1760 )
So here we have three decks that cover barely 100 years.
Of course my friend Yves could correct me and say that in the middle were many others.
But I am interested in the changes of the iconography.
and I saw that also even the difference between Noblet and Dodal in terms of times ( 50 years) they are more closest between them,than Conver in the same space of time ( 1760 ) with regard to them.
It is like after Dodal "something happened"...
- I regret too much not have the 22 of Jean Payen a deck done in 1743 to add to the "middle" between Dodal and Conver,but if you or you Yves has it (as I know) please send to us.
*That could be very important because we can then cover the "ghost" lost space between Dodal and Conver.
-Remember that here we are talking about iconography,so any little detail "add" or "sum".
* Why all that ?
-Just look the part two.
