SALVADOR DALI 1973 Simeon .999 PURE SILVER 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL FINE ART MEDAL

Description: SALVADOR DALI 1973 Simeon .999 PURE SILVER 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL FINE ART MEDAL. Salvador Dalí is one of the most celebrated artists of all time. His fiercely technical yet highly unusual paintings, sculptures, graphic works, photography, and film cemented him as one of the major figures of the Surrealist movement of the 20th Century.Dalí’s work investigated dreams, the subconscious, and sexuality and often reflected his deep interest in religion and science.Judeo-Christian iconography can be found across Dalí’s entire body of work, particularly after the 1940s when he began to embrace his Catholic roots. Dalí utilized familiar Biblical symbols as well as more incongruous, personally meaningful imagery. One of his most visually appealing and imaginative religious works is the Twelve Tribes of Israel portfolio from 1973. The series was completed in drypoint, a technique nearly identical to engraving, and hand-colored. The portfolio and commemorative coins represent the Biblical tribes founded by the twelve sons of Jacob.Dalí drew inspiration for the imagery in each print from the Blessing of Jacob, a prophetic poem found in Genesis, as well as Judaic texts which describe the flags and emblems representative of each tribe. Dalí infused each work with his own poetic imagery and bright, unnatural colors making the print series a unique portrayal of the significant Jewish story. originally released as a complete 12 coin set, commemorating each of the 12 original Tribes of Israel, this is one single loose fine Art medallion. weighing in at almost 3 ounces of 99.9% pure silver and almost 51 mm in diameter this is one hefty coin.coin edge is marked 1981 I assume this is the set number it came from as I have 3 others (different tribes) with the same set/ serial number.These are very unique indeed.Free Insured shipping on this item and I will combine free shipping with any other coins purchased with this item from my page.Use the add to cart button and let me adjust any shipping costs before paying.Thanks for looking.I have many coins listed over at Usa coin book under the user name KauaiCoins.
