Even in Salvador Dali’s most outlandishly surrealistic works, the coastline of his Spanish homeland was a recurring element. With an uncharacteristically peaceful mood, Dali (1904 – 1989) portrayed his younger sister, Ana Maria, who modeled for him until his wife replaced her, looking at the Bay of Cadaqués. Until Ana Maria described Dali disparagingly in her autobiography, the two were extremely close. Dali sought revenge by recreating an unflattering and obscene version of this painting.
Flamboyant and groundbreaking Spanish artist Salvador Dali is considered one of the 20th century’s greatest artists. An icon of the Surrealist movement his blend of eccentric perspectives and controversial influences resulted in wildly imaginative, unforgettable dreamscapes that are uniquely Dali. Inspired by Freud, Dali accessed his subconscious to create more intense artistic expression. Creatively prolific, he produced 1,500 paintings, along with sculptures, drawings, films, clothing and jewelry.
This art print displays sharp, vivid images with a high degree of color accuracy. A member of the versatile family of art prints, this high-quality reproduction represents the best of both worlds: quality and affordability. Art prints are created on paper similar to that of a postcard or greeting card using an offset lithography press.
