of James Bond films,
in the
early 1970’s when Live and Let Die, starring Roger Moore and Jane Seymour was released, Tarot cards played an important part in the film, so it was decided a special set would be produced,and who better to design this one off deck than Salvador Dali?
but it was not to be,
the
deck didn’t end up appearing in the film, apparently due to Dalí’s high fees,
but the artist continued to work on the cards for a decade and completed them
in 1984,
and the good news is that art
book publisher Taschen is releasing the deck, along with an
instructional book that Dalí made to accompany it, Dalí.Tarot will be
published on November 15, 2019, and is available for preorder on the Taschen website, what a unusual set of tarot cards they will be.
