The Sibyl of the Drawing Room, illustrated by Grandville, reflects the fascination with fortune-telling that swept through the drawing rooms and private salons of 1827. Somewhat satirical in tone, it is one of the earliest examples of a divination game.
Choose three cards from the deck above.
The Sibylle des Salons 1827 takes us back to the world of 19th-century divination decks and social salons. Its imagery is associated with the work of Grandville and with a sometimes satirical portrayal of the society of his time.
Three cards are drawn to represent what led to the situation, what is happening now, and its possible outcome.
With just three cards, the reading allows you to follow a situation like a short story: its origins, its present, and its possible direction.
Beyond the reading itself, the Sibylle des Salons offers an introduction to the history of 19th-century divination decks and their social and recreational dimension.
