The Golden Tarot of the Renaissance (aka Estensi Tarot) ,
designed by tarot historian Giordano Berti , is based on a 15th century French deck of the Ferrarese court which was played as a game in that time period and of which only a handful of the original cards remain.
Painted in wator colors, the 16 restored cards in the deck are an excellent match to the aged originals as seen in art history books.
For the unknown cards Berti based his designs on the historic Schifanioa frescoes in Ferarra, painted by major artists of the Ferarrese school circa 1469-1472.

The Wheel of Fortune is an interesting card worthy of inspection. A donkey is on the top of the wheel braying with a motto that says in Italian: "I will reign." A young man descending the wheel has the motto appears self-aware that he is losing his reign while the old man laying at the bottom of the wheel has clearly lost his kingdom.
