Capturing two nude female figures in Dalí’s fine, economical linework, the floral faces and stage-like drapery pull the scene into his surreal, mythological world. This 1971 original etching is signed and numbered by Salvador Dalí, bringing his fascination with the body, symbolism, and theatrical fantasy into a delicate Renaissance-inspired composition.


Salvador Dalí (1904–1989)
Dali is best known for his surreal, highly symbolic imagery, shaped by dreams, psychoanalysis, and his own “paranoiac-critical” method of seeing multiple meanings within a single image. While his paintings remain among the most recognizable works of modern art, Dalí was also deeply engaged with printmaking, producing lithographs, etchings, and mixed-media prints throughout his career. His graphic works brought his unmistakable visual language to a more intimate scale, often combining fluid draftsmanship, theatrical figuration, and strange poetic detail. Today, Dalí’s work is held in major collections and museums worldwide, including the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres and The Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.
