🪶 Collector’s Note

The Habsburger Tarock by Piatnik is a splendid tribute to the imperial Austro-Hungarian heritage.
Each card is beautifully illustrated with historical portraits and scenes from the Habsburg dynasty — emperors, empresses, and legendary figures such as Frederick III, Rudolph I, and Leonora von Este — depicted in a romantic 19th-century engraving style.

The deck combines the Tarock game structure (54 cards) with the grandeur of imperial iconography, making it a fine example of Piatnik’s historical editions from Vienna.
Printed on smooth, high-quality cardstock, it bears the distinctive Piatnik hallmark of craftsmanship and clarity.

Comparable in production quality to Piatnik’s Alt Wien Tarock and Rokoko Tarock, the Habsburger edition stands out for its refined palette and courtly symbolism — a deck as much for play as for display in any collection of European historical cards.
