Begonia (Anacardium recordans), from Flordali® (Flora Dalinae)
A vibrant and surrealist interpretation of the begonia flower, this etching showcases Dalí's masterful ability to merge botanical precision with dreamlike imagination. The rich, saturated colors achieved through the intricate etching and drypoint process bring the bloom to life with an almost hallucinatory intensity, while subtle distortions hint at the artist's signature otherworldly vision. Part of the celebrated *Flora Dalinae* series, this work reflects Dalí's lifelong fascination with the natural world transformed through the lens of his boundless, eccentric creativity.
