Representative work

Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dali i Domenech, Marqués de Púbol, Marqués de Púbol, 11 May 1904 – January 1989 23), commonly known simply as Salvador Dalí, was a famous Spanish Catalan painter, known for his Surrealist works. An artist of extraordinary talent and imagination, Dalí's work surprisingly mixes eerie, dreamlike images with superb drawing techniques and those influenced by Renaissance masters.

In 1982, King Juan Carlos I of Spain named him the Marquis of Pupol. Together with Picasso and Matisse, he is considered to be the three most representative painters of the twentieth century. 

Living "Surrealism"

Surrealist painting is one of the most widely influential movements in Western modern literature and art. The second generation of surrealist painters include Pierre Roy, Tanguy, Magritte, Paul Delvaux and Salvador Dali. This group of painters is to express a living environment that completely violates the natural organization and structure based on the principle of exquisite realistic depiction of details and recognizable parts of objects, and combines fantasy into a strange environment to show the dream in the painter's heart. . Some people also call this kind of painting naturalistic surrealism.

As the main representative of the movement in the field of fine arts, Dali has always been the object of attention and debate. "The only difference between me and a lunatic is that I am not lunatic." "Every morning when I wake up, I experience an extreme joy, that is, the joy of being Dali...". You don't have to look at Dalí's moustache, or his whimsical works, these extraordinary quips alone are enough to make you imagine what kind of person he was.
