Salvador Dalí, renowned for his surrealist paintings, also created a series of prints that capture the essence of his imaginative and dreamlike visions. His prints, like his paintings, often feature fantastical landscapes, bizarre creatures, and distorted figures rendered with meticulous detail and vivid colors. Among his most famous print series are "The Divine Comedy" (1960), inspired by Dante Alighieri's epic poem, and "Les Chants de Maldoror" (1934), based on Comte de Lautréamont's surrealistic novel. Dalí's prints showcase his mastery of various printmaking techniques, including etching, lithography, and engraving, allowing him to experiment with texture, line, and tone to create captivating visual narratives. Through his prints, Dalí invites viewers into the surreal depths of his imagination, where reality blends seamlessly with fantasy, leaving a lasting impression on those who experience his art.

Salvador Dalí
Instantly recognizable by his waxed, upturned mustache, the flamboyant Salvador Dalí is one of modern art’s most distinctive figures. He is also one of the icons of the 20-century avant-garde Surrealist movement, whose dreamlike images, drawn from the depths of the unconscious, he deployed in paintings, sculptures, prints and fashion, as well as in film collaborations with Luis Buñuel and Alfred Hitchcock.
Dalí was born in Figueres, Catalonia, and even as a youngster, displayed the sensitivity, sharp perception and vivid imagination that would later define his artworks. In these, he conjured childhood memories and employed religious symbols and Freudian imagery like staircases, keys and dripping candles to create unexpected, often shocking pieces.
Dalí's use of hyperrealism in conveying Surrealist symbols and concepts that subvert accepted notions of reality is epitomized in what is perhaps his most recognizable painting, The Persistence of Memory (1931), in which he depicts the fluidity of time through melting clocks, their forms inspired by Camembert cheese melting in the sun. His artistic genius, eccentric personality and eternal quest for fame made him a global celebrity.
“Each morning when I awake, I experience again a supreme pleasure,” he once said. “That of being Salvador Dalí.”

- Hans Bellmer - Woman - HandSigned EtchingBy Hans BellmerLocated in Collonge Bellerive, Geneve, CHHans BELLMER Woman Original Etching Hand-Signed Edition: 108 / 150 Dimensions: 51 x 38 cm Circa 1970 Hans Bellmer was born in Kattowitz in 1902. At his father's insistence, he worked in a steel factory and a coal mine after finishing the examinations qualifying for university admittance. Nevertheless, Bellmer managed to do some art work and exhibit it in Poland in 1922/23. The work led to his arrest. While studying engineering at Berlin Polytechnic, Hans Bellmer met John Heartfield, Rudolf Schlichter and George Grosz. In 1924 Bellmer dropped out of engineering, worked as a book printer and then as an illustrator for Malik Verlag. That winter Bellmer took his first trip to Paris. After his marriage in 1927, Hans Bellmer worked as a commercial artist, attended lectures at the Bauhaus in the early 1930s and travelled to Italy and Tunisia. He refused to continue working as a sign of resistance to Fascism in 1933. To show his repudiation of Fascism and the aesthetic it propagated, Hans Bellmer began to construct girlish three-dimensional dolls, which he photographed in erotic poses. Some of these works were published by Bellmer at his own expense in 1934, others appeared in the Surrealist journal "Le Minotaure", ensuring Bellmer important ranking among Paris Surrealists...Category
