The illustrations from this deck come from the works of the French illustrator and caricaturist J.J. Grandville (pseudonym for Jean Ignace Isidore Gerard), considered one of the most important precursors of the surrealists for his imaginative and magnificent artwork.
Here, the flowers and the plants are personified and assume social significance.
