Salvador Dali was born Salvador Felipe Jacinto Dali i Domènche in Figueres (Catalonia, Spain) in 1904 and has called himself Marqués de Dalí de Púbol (Marquis of Dalí of Púbol) since 1982 – Púbol Castle was his home.

The Spanish painter, graphic artist and sculptor Salvador Dali is one of the most famous artists of the 20th century. His surrealist images influenced painting, film and literature.

As the main representative of surrealism, he created numerous works with his inexhaustible painterly and technical skills, which tell new themes in alienated motifs, objects, people or landscapes. The contrast and togetherness build up the tension in the depiction.

After the artist had to leave school in his homeland, he went to Paris. There he created his first cubist works. When Dali met Pablo Picasso, his interest in surrealism increased and his first experimental works showed him the way to his unreal, imaginary and dreamlike, i.e. surreal representations. This made the artist the main representative of the surrealism movement.

Salvador Dali’s works can be assigned to Surrealism, Cubism, Dadaism and Modern Art.

Dali’s extensive graphic work includes numerous artistic techniques such as the
Etchings, steel engravings, lithographs, woodcuts and mixed media techniques.
