CATALOGUE NOTE
The deck of cards is the "Russian Style" first produced at the Imperial Playing Card Factory in 1911. The deck, in which different face cards are represent characters in seventeenth-century Russian costume, were considered "the pride of the Russian card industry." As the accompanying deck shows, they continued to be produced by the nationalized State Playing Card Factory into the 1930s. See the State Russian Museum, Play & Passion in Russian Fine Art, St. Petersburg, 1999, pp. 240-241.
