AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Exclusive collector's case of the mythical Tarot designed by surrealist genius Salvador Dalí, published by the prestigious art publisher TASCHEN.

This magnificent edition recovers one of the artist's most fascinating and mystical works. The story goes that Dalí began this project in the 1970s by commission for the James Bond film Live and Let Die. Although the cinematic project did not prosper, Dalí continued working on it with passion, influenced by the deep interest of his muse Gala in esotericism and mysticism.

The tarot consists of the 78 cards printed in full color with gold edges, where Dalí masterfully combines collage, painting, classical works of Western art and his own surrealist symbolism. As a distinctive detail, Dalí himself portrays himself as The Magician (I) and portrayed Gala as The Empress (III).

The lot includes:
• Complete deck: 78 trumps (major and minor) in perfect condition.
• Explanatory guidebook: Written by the renowned tarot expert Johannes Fiebig, detailing the iconography, symbolism and reading instructions for each card.
• Presentation case: Elegant original rigid box lined in purple velvet with Dalí's signature printed in gold letters.

Item details:
• Publisher: TASCHEN
• Book author: Johannes Fiebig
• Illustrations: Salvador Dalí
• Language: Multilingual (English, French and German)
• Condition: Good condition. The velvet case retains its vibrant color and the cards and the book show no obvious signs of use. (See photographs to verify details). It has small flaws that are shown in the images.
