While contemplating the painting he was finishing, ‘Apparition of the Visage of Aphrodite of Cnide in a Landscape’, Salvador Dali imagined his first bottle of perfume (see pictures), the famous mouth-shaped bottle. Salvador Dali is drawing his inspiration from the face of Aphrodite, goddess of beauty and love. The second vial on the photos is also inspired by a smaller image at the lower left corner in the same work. You will no longer look at your perfume in the same way from now on, or you will soon buy a Dali perfume.
Salvador Dali, is unanimously recognized as the greatest surrealist artist, one of the greatest artists of the 20th century and definitively the most charismatic. The work offered for sale is part of a collection, in addition to the most famous paintings and rarities by the artist, most of which are rarely or have never been seen. The collection consists mainly of lesser-known paintings and drawings from the many periods of one of the most prolific artists of our time.
Not all of these works are always the most ‘beautiful’ in the aesthetic sense of the word, although in Dali's work, beauty is a constant. They are all interesting, very exciting, each one is representing a part of the journey of this artist who has an overflowing, abundant, delusional imagination. These are all testimonies of the history of this genuine creative genius.
To be discovered. With rare exceptions, I only own one copy of each.
