Salvador Dalí is one of the most famous and recognisable figures in 20th-century art.
A painter, engraver, draughtsman, sculptor, set designer and creator of images destined to enter the collective imagination, Dalí is considered one of the absolute icons of Surrealism.
The work is a classic example of Dalí’s mature Surrealism, where the lithographic technique is used to explore the subconscious through bizarre and dreamlike images.
At the centre of the composition dominates the figure of a dark-clad horseman on a galloping horse, set against a fantastical landscape characterised by a vast expanse of deep red.
Recurring elements of Dalí’s symbolism are evident: organic forms that seem to be liquefying, stylised human figures in the lower left, and a blood-red sun (or globe) dominating the upper part, evoking an apocalyptic or magical atmosphere.
In this beautiful work, Salvador Dalí makes full use of the potential of lithography, alternating fine, almost scratched lines with areas of vibrant colour and ‘splashes’ of ink.
This beautiful work by Salvador Dalí makes full use of the potential of lithography, alternating between fine, almost scratched lines and areas of vibrant colour and splashes of ink (tachisme).
The contrast between the deep black of the figures and the bright red creates a dramatic dynamism, typical of his theatrical and eccentric style.
The work reflects the artist’s method of rationalising the ‘delirium’ of the unconscious, transforming chaotic visions into a structured composition that challenges the viewer’s perception. This piece has an attribution mark,
