About the Artist: Salvador Dalí (1904–1989)
Salvador Dalí was a leading figure of the Surrealist movement and remains one of the most iconic and influential artists of the 20th century. Born in Figueres, Spain, Dalí was a master of technical precision, using a "hand-painted dream photograph" style to render the bizarre and the subconscious with startling clarity.
 
The Master of Surrealism
Dalí’s work is characterized by its exploration of subconscious imagery, Freudian symbolism, and meticulously detailed landscapes. His eccentric personality and flamboyant mustache made him a global celebrity, but it was his unparalleled ability to manipulate visual perception that cemented his legacy in art history.
