Beschreibung:

Salvador Dalí The Face in the Windmill 1965 Lithograph in colors, on Rives BFK paper, with full margins, I. 20 1/8 x 26 1/4 in. (51.1 x 66.7 cm) S. 25 x 38 in. (63.5 x 96.5 cm) signed and annotated `E' in pencil (from the group of 10 lettered A through J, aside from the edition of 150), also signed, inscribed and with a remarque drawing in ink, published by Sidney Lucas, New York (with their inkstamp), unframed.
Literature Ralf Michler and Lutz Löpsinger 1146 Artist Bio Salvador Dalí Spanish • 1904 - 1989 Salvador Dalí was perhaps the most broadly known member of the Surrealist movement of the early twentieth century. Heavily influenced by Sigmund Freud, the avant-garde style explored consciousness and dream-like states through exaggerated landscapes and bizarre or grotesque imagery. Using the means of painting, sculpture, printmaking, film and literature, Dalí explored these ideas with a meticulous hand and inventive wit. Although known for his role in Surrealism, Dalí was also a seminal example of celebrity showmanship and the cult of personality, a phenomenon that dominates popular culture today. Always a colorful and flamboyant presence with his signature cape, wide-eyed expression and trademark upturned waxed mustache, Dalí was a master of self-promotion and spectacle. View More Works
