The Surrealists Salvador Dali: Madonna
Salvador Dali was probably the greatest Surrealist painter / artist.
This painting is an extremely important work in helping us understand Dali's post-war development. While borrowing from traditional Christian iconography, the overall composition of this work takes the form of a nuclear structure. We can see the Madonna has been replaced with an image of the artist's wife, Gala.. Dali’s constant source of creativity. Salvador Dali was probably the greatest Surrealist painter and artist.
