This is a ‘stylish’ very well preserved set of game cards with the standard 52 playing cards.
The special thing about this "creation" is the designer who stands behind this creation. It is Arnold Schoenberg. Not only did he attract attention as a composer (he was the driving force behind the introduction of twelve-tone music - dodecaphony in the 1920s), he not only created over 250 paintings, but also developed the design for this set of playing cards under the distinct influence of Art Nouveau.

His legacy was initially maintained by the Arnold Schoenberg Institute in Los Angeles, then by the Schönberg Center in Vienna (from 1998).
If you enjoy a neat game with this special "deck of cards", you will also travel back to the music history of the 20th century.
The attached booklet provides you with a variety of interesting information about the work and life of Schönberg on 72 pages in German and English, including about this card game.
