Fine art by Salvador Dali, The artwork shown is "
The Poet Advises the Maiden" by Salvador Dalí. Also known as "The Poet Advises the Maiden (The Hand)," the piece is a lithograph created by Dalí in 1979.
The lithograph was created to illustrate Ovid's book, The Art of Love. The artwork is a surrealist piece that incorporates many of Dalí's iconic elements. It is known for its "double imagery," where a single image can be perceived in more than one way. In this case, the main figure in the foreground, composed of two figures and a hand, creates the illusion of a skull.
"The Poet Advises the Maiden" is a limited edition lithograph, with some editions printed on Japon paper and others on Arches paper. It is a hand-signed and numbered work. The work is considered one of Dalí's most recognizable pieces |
