The work depicts a naked female figure, evoked as a siren, suspended between sensual corporeality and dreamlike dissolution.
The bust emerges like an apparition above a multicoloured rocky arch that opens onto a calm and timeless seascape.
At the centre of the scene, an archaic ship ploughs through the waters, while small human figures, reduced to symbolic presences, animate the shore.
Salvador Dalí masterfully orchestrates the dialogue between eros, myth and the unconscious, merging the female figure with the landscape according to his paranoiac-critical method.
The intense, layered colour contrasts with the more delicate graphic lines of the body, creating a visual tension typical of his mature work.
In the 1970s, Salvador Dalí devoted himself intensely to graphic art, considering it a privileged means of disseminating his symbolic imagery.
Salvador Dalí's La sirène fits into this phase as a work of synthesis, in which classical myth is reinterpreted in the light of Freudian psychoanalysis and Surrealist poetics.
The siren, an ambiguous figure par excellence, embodies the seduction of desire and the risk of perdition, recurring themes in Dalí's universe.
The rocky arch, almost a natural threshold, becomes a metaphor for the passage between consciousness and the subconscious.
