Isolde is married to King Marc and sequestered from Tristan within the castle walls. Tristan suffers greatly in not seeing her and decides to disguise himself as a fool so he can enter King Marc’s castle and possibly see Isolde again. In Mad Tristan, Dalí shows us a grotesque disguise with a jester’s costume and what is indeed, unrecognizable as Tristan. Tristan, the great warrior has been reduced to an outlandish fool. The large stone with many cracks rests at his feet as a testament to the eternal loss of his future. Possibly, Tristan has really - gone mad.
