Description

The British-born Mexican surrealist Leonora Carrington (1917-2011) created a spectacular Major Arcana Tarot deck some time during the 1950s, laying gold and silver leaf over brilliant color.

This extraordinary work was a revelation for the public back in 2018, and it inspired the publication of The Tarot of Leonora Carrington. This second, considerably expanded edition – encouraged by the positive reception of Fulgur’s publication in 2020 – includes an introductory textby her son, Gabriel Weisz, who recalls his mother’s long involvement with the Tarot, followed by a revised and more extensive essay by scholar Susan Aberth and curator Tere Arq.

The volume gathers a detailed analysis of each card: their symbolism, their relationship to other works and their iconographic origins in ancient esoteric beliefs, including the Mesoamerican influences of her adopted country.
