Salvador Dalí

Gladiolus Cum Aurium Corymbo, from Surrealistic Flowers (Field 72-7G; M&L 541)

This 1972 colored etching and heliogravure by Salvador Dalí depicts a surrealist interpretation of gladiolus flowers with dreamlike, distorted forms characteristic of the artist's distinctive style. The print was produced through a sophisticated printing process at prestigious Parisian ateliers and published in a limited edition of 350 copies on high quality Arches paper. The work exemplifies Dalí's exploration of botanical subjects filtered through the lens of surrealism, transforming naturalistic flowers into fantastical, imaginative compositions.
