Description
1967 Dali s: Signs of the Zodiac Folio: Text by Sokoloff. In 1967, famed surrealist artist Salvador Dali illustrated a portfolio depicting the twelve signs of the zodiac: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. The text, written by Nicolas Sokoloff, is philosophical and often surreal itself using unusual and expressive language and structures to describe the attributes of each sign and its classifications. The signs are classified multiple ways: in their quadruplicities (Cardinal, Steady, and Mutable), in their dominant element (Fire, Air, Water, Earth), and by their ruling planet or celestial body. The work was published by Leon Amiel in Paris & New York in two editions one on Arches paper and one on Japan paper. This is the portfolio only with the lithograph frontispiece signed in the stone. The thirteen original lithographs have been offered separately, four of which are available in this auction: Leo, Scorpio (Dali s Sign), Pisces, and Capricorn. Some pages may be missing from this loose folio style presentation.
