Angel head: multiple work by the Master of the Twentieth Century Salvador Dalì. Subject of the work is the face of an angel, elaborated with exemplary originality by the surrealist genius. The pose of the head is fixed, bowed and the gentle eyes downwards looking, whereas the ink splashes all around help to give the viewer an idea of an unnceasing dynamism. The limited printing of the work (in only 90 copies) helps in increasing its value. The work is numbered 51/90 on the left bottom, and signed by the artist on the right.
1904 Figueras, Spain
Salvador Dalí was born in 1904, in Figueras, Catalonia. He was one of the most well-known surrealist artists of the twentieth century, and he was a great experimenter of the pictorial, theatrical and cinematographic fields. His style is original and it is distinguishable due to the provocative subject matter. He was able to integrate the Freudian theory of dream analysis in his works, expressing the workings of the unconscious mind and associate words, images and thoughts to provoke a specific kind of emotion in the viewers, revealing also the artist’s darkest secrets and an alternative reality. Thanks to his expertise as a draftsman and a colorist, he used a variety of techniques and mediums to create his artwork, such as lithography, sculpting, oil painting, fashion designing and writing. Dalí’s work was inspired by Pablo Picasso, whom he met in Paris, and by an Italian painter, called Giorgio de Chirico. Since he used the themes of death, eroticism, childhood memories, dreams, his artworks can be viewed as modern, innovative, deep, symbolic and sometimes grotesque.
