Horse and Rider - Salvador Dali Painting - Surrealism Art - Posters
100 Rs
The Spanish painter Salvador Dali remains one of the most controversial and paradoxical artists of the twentieth century. Over last few decades, Salvador Dali has gradually come to be seen, alongside the likes of Picasso and Matisse, as a prodigious figure whose life and work occupies a central and unique position in the history of modern art.
Dali has also come to be regarded not only as its most well-known exponent but also, to many people, as an individual artist synonymous with Surrealism itself. In addition, Dali was a great artist who was a great self-publicist and showman. The combination was an irresistible formula for success.

About Horse and Rider Salvador Dali Painting Surrealism Art
Horse and Rider was created during the last years of Dalí's formal involvement with the Surrealist movement. Displaying the artist's extraordinary talents as a draughtsman, the present work intricately features the landscape near Dali's home in Port Lligat in Northern Spain which dominate much of the artist's imagery in the mid-1930s. Executed in 1935 during an ominous period of political uncertainty in Europe, and especially in Spain, the horse and rider triumphantly charge ahead, heroically dominating the landscape. The theme of the horse and rider was prevalent in the work of Dalí during the 1930s. In the present work one can draw parallels to the story of Don Quixote in which the artist was particularly interested. With a scroll in his raised hand the rider charges forward, determined to deliver a message possibly to the city seen in the distance. About the Posters
