Iconic image from the now legendary collaboration between Salvador Dali and portrait photographer Phillipe Halsman which began in the early 1940s.

Salvador Dali (1904-1989) was one of the original Surrealists from the 1920s together with Max Ernst, Man Ray, Luis Buñuel, Joan Miró and Marcel Duchamp. A larger-than-life personality and showman, he was renowned for his technical skill, precise draftsmanship and the striking and bizarre images in his work.

Negative taken in 1953, printed later. Halsman copyright verso. Matted to 11"x14" in a black wooden frame.
