About This Item
Olandar Press. 2003. F First Edition Privately Printed. H Hardcover. New. High Quality Cloth w/Dust Jacket. In TAROT reVISIONed, Leigh J. McCloskey has created an entirely new and unique series of drawings representing the twenty-two archetypes of the Major Arcana of the Tarot. A culmination of a seventeen year creative process, this work reveals a depth and acuity of vision that is both original and profound. The text of the manuscript consists of commentaries which examine traditional meanings and attributions connected with each Tarot archetype, as well as introducing new and insightful material that lends a deeper significance to the Tarot Tradition. Each commentary explores how the Tarot expresses both transcendental and individual qualities of consciousness, analyzing the mythological and esoteric, as well as considering how the archetypes interact and influence personal reality and experience. Following each commentary is a detailed examination and explanation of the symbolism and content of each drawing. The manuscript, approximately 90,000 words, is comprised of twenty-two chapters, an introduction and contains a forward by Stanislas Klossowski de Rola, the internationally recognized scholar and author of The Golden Game and Alchemy: The Secret Art. Leigh is a dear friend of Sacred Science Institute and is one of the most exceptional artists we have ever seen, and in this book, he publishes, for the first time, his pen and ink drawings of the Major Arcana of the Tarot. These images possess a beauty and transcendent quality like no other Tarot drawings ever, done in the Renaissance style of Durer. The artwork in this books is EXTRAORDINARY, and includes full color reproductions of Leighs magnificent OIL PAINTINGS on the front and back of the Dust Jacket, and on the inner pages.This is the FIRST EDITION of what will surely be a collectors item.
