"Ace of Diamonds" from a series of playing cards created by the Spanish surrealist artist Salvador Dalí.
About the Artwork
Artist: Salvador Dalí (Spanish, 1904–1989).
Date: The artwork is a color lithograph from a series that was created around 1969 to 1972.
Medium: Color lithograph.
Series: It is part of the "Playing Card Suite," which consists of 17 lithographs, including an ace, jack, king, and queen for each suit, and a joker. Dalí designed the original playing cards in the late 1960s, and the lithographs were released shortly after.
Characteristics: The piece features a melting clock with a heart in the center, a common motif in Dalí's work, which is a reference to his famous painting, The Persistence of Memory. The card reinterprets a traditional playing card through Dalí's surrealist style. |
