In May 1890, days after leaving the asylum at Saint-Rémy, Vincent van Gogh painted Roses in the garden. It was among his last works before his death that summer, a quiet bouquet of white blossoms against a sea of green. This deck reenacts its serenity with remarkable fidelity. The card back and box designs are rendered in thick, swirling brushwork, so the petals seem to ripple. A band of blossoms run across each face, and the court cards are reimagined as figures from Van Gogh's portrait gallery, dressed in his signature cobalt and ochre. Ace of Spades is a nod to The Church at Auvers and a gentle echo of the artist's final season. Shuffle slowly, and let a spring morning in 1890 drift back, soft light on green leaves, and the hush of petals still wet with paint.
