Alice in Wonderland
Alice in Wonderland
Bronze, blue patina, height: 90.5 cm, limited edition of 350 copies, signed.
In 1968, Dalí illustrated "Alice in Wonderland," choosing the figure of the girl with a jump rope—a motif that had already appeared in his paintings like Morphological Echo in the 1930s. Like Alice, Dalí moved through dream worlds, drawn to fantastical figures and absurd stories. For him, Alice was the eternal child, approaching riddles with childlike naiveté. In his depiction, she holds the rope above her head, her hands and hair transforming into roses as symbols of beauty and youth, while a crutch provides her with stability and a connection to reality.

SPAIN, 1904 - 1989
Salvador Dalí
Salvador Dalí, born in Figueras in 1904, is considered one of the leading minds of surrealism and one of the most famous artists of the 20th century. Around 1929 he found his own style, which explored the world of the unconscious and dreams. With melting clocks and burning giraffes, he created iconic images that show his technical skills in an old-masterly style. Common themes in Dalí's works are intoxication, fever and religion, with his wife Gala often playing a central role. After an eventful life that took him from Spain to the USA and back to Europe, Dalí died in 1989, leaving a lasting legacy in the art world.
