DALI, SALVADOR (1904-1989).

DALI, SALVADOR (1904-1989).

"Le Château de Gala" (Galas Schloß), 1974, Farbradierung mit Pochoir auf Velin, u.re. handsigniert "Dali", u.li. bezeichnet "E.A." (Épreuve d'Artiste), 59x50 cm (64x53,5 cm mit Rahmen). Das Blatt stammt aus der 12-teiligen Grafikmappe "Après 50 ans de Surréalisme". Dali schuf diese Serie anlässlich der Eröffnung seines Museums 'Teatro-Museo Dali' in seiner katalanischen Heimatstadt Figueres. Dargestellt ist die Burg von Púbol in Katalonien. Dali der seiner Muse und Ehefrau Gala versprochen hatte, ihr ein Schloß zu schenken, kaufte ihr die Burg Púbol im Jahr 1969, wo sie bis 1980 die Sommer verbrachte und wo sie 1982 in der Krypta auch beigesetzt wurde. Die Darstellung zeigt Salvador Dali und Gala in bühnenhafter Inszenierung vor dem Schloß stehend, wobei Gala als Herrscherin im roten Mantel die zentrale Rolle einnnimmt. Über dem Schloß schwebt ein typisch surrealistisches Elefantenwesen mit langen Beinen, der den realen Ort in einen surrealistischen Mythos verwandelt. Leichte Passepartout- Bräunung (Lichtrand). Im WVZ Michler/Löpsinger Nr. 675 und im WVZ Albert Field unter der Nr. 74-8K verzeichnet. | DALI, SALVADOR (1904–1989). “"Le Château de Gala" (Gala's Castle), 1974, color etching with stencil on vellum, signed ‘Dali’ lower right by hand, inscribed “E.A.” (Épreuve d'Artiste/Artist’s Proof) lower left , approx. 59x50 cm (64x53.5 cm with frame). The print is from the 12-piece print portfolio “Après 50 ans de Surréalisme.” Dalí created this series to mark the opening of his museum, the Teatro-Museo Dalí, in his Catalan hometown of Figueres. Depicted is the castle of Púbol in Catalonia. Dalí, who had promised his muse and wife Gala that he would give her a castle, purchased Púbol Castle for her in 1969; she spent her summers there until 1980 and was later laid to rest in its crypt in 1982. Salvador Dalí and Gala stand in a theatrical composition in front of the castle, with Gala, dressed as a queen in a red cloak, taking center stage. Hovering above the castle is a typical surrealist elephant-like creature with long legs, transforming the real-life location into a surrealist myth. Slight browning of the mat (light-induced discoloration). Listed in the Michler/Löpsinger Catalog No. 675 and in the Albert Field Catalog under No. 74-8K. SHIPPING TO THE U.S. MUST BE ARRANGED BY THE BUYER
