Collotype-Continious Tone (No Dots) Lithographic Print on Thick Fine Art paper with a Deckled Edge at the top, In Excellent Never Circulated Condition from the inventory of the original printer.
These came from the printer, Collotype- Black Box in Chicago. This is a continuous tone printing, thus no dots like traditional lithography. It is closer to an original stone lithograph, but the colors are a great deal more intense. It was never cut down to the print's final dimensions, as it shows printer marks top right and along the right hand side of the print. I do not have any information on this print, the good thing is that it a high quality print, most likely printed in the late 1970s or early 1980s, and is not signed. The actual signed and numbered larger prints from the original edition sell for almost $30,000. If it was signed I would not sell it, as there are to many fakes out there, as well as the fact that Dali's greedy and corrupt handlers had him signing blank paper later sold to print publishers who would pick an image out of a book and produce an edition. This was never meant to leave the printer as it has not been trimmed to the final print size, or signed or numbered.
Please note that the print is not cut on a weird angle, the print is perfectly rectangular, I can't say the same for my photography of the print. I wanted to show the full print so you could see the deckle edge at the top as well as the printers marks that are at the extreme edges of the print.
SALVADOR DALI
Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domènech, Marquis of Dalí de Púbol (/ˈdɑːli, dɑːˈliː/,[1][2] Catalan: [səlβəˈðo ðəˈli], Spanish: [salβaˈðoɾ ðaˈli]; 11 May 1904 – 23 January 1989) was a Spanish surrealist artist renowned for his technical skill, precise draftsmanship and the striking and bizarre images in his work.
Born in Figueres, Catalonia, Dalí received his formal education in fine arts at Madrid. Influenced by Impressionism and the Renaissance masters from a young age, he became increasingly attracted to Cubism and avant-garde movements. [3] He moved closer to Surrealism in the late 1920s and joined the Surrealist group in 1929, soon becoming one of its leading exponents. His best-known work, The Persistence of Memory, was completed in August 1931, and is one of the most famous Surrealist paintings. Dalí lived in France throughout the Spanish Civil War (1936 to 1939) before leaving for the United States in 1940 where he achieved commercial success. He returned to Catalonia in 1948 where he announced his return to the Catholic faith and developed his "nuclear mysticism" style, based on his interest in classicism, mysticism and recent scientific developments. [4]
Dalí's artistic repertoire included painting, graphic arts, film, sculpture, design and photography, at times in collaboration with other artists. He also wrote fiction, poetry, autobiography, essays and criticism. Major themes in his work include dreams, the subconscious, sexuality, religion, science and his closest personal relationships. To the dismay of those who held his work in high regard, and to the irritation of his critics, his eccentric and ostentatious public behavior sometimes drew more attention than his artwork. His public support for the Francoist regime, his commercial activities and the quality and authenticity of some of his late works have also been controversial. His life and work were an important influence on other Surrealists, pop art and contemporary artists such as Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst. There are two major museums devoted to his work: The Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres, Spain and the Salvador Dalí Museum in Florida.
A note, we have been a gallery since 1987, and the only other Salvador Dali prints we ever sold was a complete set of "The Divine Comedy Suite" for a Midwest bank that had loaned money on them. We have stayed away from the print's by Salvador Dali due to the number of fakes, but will purchase and sell on consignment original drawings by the artist.
About the Continuous Tone Printing Process:
Screenless lithography, by eliminating the use of halftone screens and halftone dots achieves extraordinary fidelity, fullness of tone, color and detail, impressive color saturation and clear line resolution. Museums, fine artists and publishers with exacting standards use this remarkable process to re-create their finest works of art. Continuous tone lithography (as in a photograph with no dots) evolved from collotype printing. When Black Box Collotype ultimately closed its doors in 2004, it was one of just a few printers left in the world that had mastered the collotype process. While it was a highly desirable reproduction process for the fine art world, it was a laborious, time consuming (read “expensive”) process. Since there was no screen involved, a collotype print could be 27 colors without fear of a moiré. But in the old days, on Black Box’s one-unit press, those 27 colors had to be laid down one color at a time. So the most complex jobs could take months to complete.
Offset lithography is far faster and less expensive than collotype. Suddenly, four colors and halftone dot patterns were “good enough” because they were so economical. Black Box Collotype was one of the last printing houses in America, if not the world that used the collotype-continuous tone process.
