Salvador Dali
'Untitled' from Dali's renowned Japanese Fairy Tales suite , 1974
Dry point etching with pochoir in colours

The present works, Japanese Fairy Tales suite highlights Dalí's ability to merge Japanese folklore with surrealist techniques, creating a unique cross-cultural experience that reflects his broader fascination with Eastern art and ideas. The suite is an extraordinary combination of Eastern mythology and Western surrealism, seamlessly blending different cultural elements. The masterful use of colours emote and allow us to feel the tone of the works with bright vivid colours creating a surreal, dreamlike state, strongly broken up by the red sharp injection of red alluding to the east.
