	Andy's Playing Cards - page VII - The Tarots Of Ferrara - part 1 (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The same difficulty in telling one trump from the other was the reason why somebody added small numbers to those of the Tarot of Alessandro Sforza and the Tarot of Charles VI, likely by the time these decks no longer belonged to the original owners.
		Alessandro was Francesco Sforza's brother; he was duke of Pesaro (1445-73), a city located on Italy's Adriatic coast, about 160 Km (or 100 mi) south-east of Ferrara, thus not within the jurisdiction of the Este, yet still within the area of influence of the eastern group of tarots.
		Some pip cards have survived only from the Tarot of Alessandro Sforza and the Rothschild Tarot, and both of them are consistent with those of the Pierpont Morgan Bergamo Visconti Sforza deck (see the Visconti Tarots in page VI, part 4): a white background, without a hammered pattern, painted with colourful flowers and leaves.

	Sforza Triptych by WEYDEN, Rogier van der
		Around 1460 an altarpiece of remarkably irregular composition, known as the Sforza Triptych, was painted for Alessandro Sforza (1409-1479), a member of the Pesaro branch of the famous Sforza family of Milan.
		Alessandro Sforza is kneeling before the Crucifixion at the centre - his head was painted on a separate piece of foil and then stuck into the picture - with two members of his family who cannot be identified for certain.
		On the same level, the wings of the triptych show St Bavo and St Francis on the left, and St Catherine and St Barbara on the right.

		The oldest of the four decks is undoubtly the Tarot of Alessandro Sforza, whose distinctive crest on the king of Swords, a bezel ring crossed by a carnation, fixes a deadline for the making of the deck: 1473.
		Some scholars also maintain that some of the illustrations of this deck are stylistically more primitive than the others, and that the clothes worn by the court personages used to be fashionable up to the mid 1400s.
		If this interpretation is correct, the tarot could have been made in the same years as the aforesaid Tarot of Alessandro Sforza, i.e.
