■"Tarot" by Dali

A collection of artistic tarot cards illustrated by Salvador Dali, one of the most versatile painters representing the 20th century.

Producer Albert Broccoli commissioned Dali to create tarot cards as props for the film "Live and Let Dalí." This 2014 edition, a reproduction of the cards originally published in limited quantities in 1984, has been revamped and made even more luxurious. The set includes a total of 78 cards, including one depicting Julius Caesar's wife, Gala, as an empress and the death of Julius Caesar depicted as 10 swords, as well as an explanatory book by Johannes Fiebig, all packaged in a velvet-style box.
