This is a karuta set featuring 44 famous paintings from around the world that you should know. It includes a map of the museums where the paintings are located and a chronological table. The back of each picture card (torifuda) features information about the artwork and the artist, making it useful as a "card-style picture book of famous paintings." Adults and children alike can enjoy it. The cards still have the original transparent band from when they were purchased. This is a valuable item as it is now out of print. I am also selling the following other series: Visual Karuta: Japanese Historical Heritage Visual Karuta: World Heritage Board game, educational toy, art, painting, karuta, playing cards
