A pack published in the Netherlands (Breda) in 2005 to a design by Cerberus (Colin Peters) showing the actors and consequences of the first (1994-96) and second (1999-2002) Chechen wars. The powerful images were first linocut and then lithographed. The author says the king, queen and jack are transformed into sinister figures”. The Russian and Chechen leadership are shown on the court cards while some of the queens show the allegorical ‘Black Widow’ and the ‘Soldier’s Mother’ The suit signs are printed in muted browns and greys and the backs are a repeat pattern of flowers and skulls. One of the jokers is the artist. The pack consists of 52 cards plus two jokers and two information cards. The date of publication (2005) and the limitation (1000 packs) is noted in the box lid. The pack is slightly larger than usual at 10.5 cm x 6.5 cm.
