What to expect
Giardino dei Tarocchi
The Garden designed by the artist Niki de Saint Phalle is located in Capalbio and shows incredible sculptures up to 15 meters tall representing the 22 arcana of the Tarots, realized in steel and concrete and covered with mirrors, glasses and colored ceramics. The Tarot Garden is a sculpture garden based on the esoteric tarot, created by the French artist Niki de Saint Phalle (1930–2002) in Tuscany. There she built the Giardino dei Tarocchi, containing twenty-two monumental figures representing her idea of the greater Mysteries of the tarot. The figures can be walked through; the artist lived inside the sphinx-like Empress for several months during the construction of the garden.
