Salvador Dalí — Lincoln in Dalívision (Field 77-1; M&L 928)
Salvador Dalí

Lincoln in Dalívision (Field 77-1; M&L 928)

In this 1977 lithograph, Salvador Dalí reimagines Abraham Lincoln through his signature Surrealist lens, employing the distorted perspective and dreamlike quality characteristic of his "Dalívision" technique. The work demonstrates Dalí's mastery of printmaking, combining lithography with etched remarque and embossing to create dimensional effects on Arches paper. This numbered edition print from a run of 350, published by Levine and Levine in New York, exemplifies Dalí's late period engagement with American iconography and his continued exploration of perceptual manipulation through innovative technical processes.
