Salvador Dalí was simply one of the most famous and influential artists of the 20th century.  Dalí's works were characterized by his unique and imaginative style, blending surrealism with meticulous attention to detail.  His art often delved into the realms of dreams, the subconscious, and the irrational.  He was deeply influenced by the psychoanalytic theories of Sigmund Freud, which can be seen in his paintings that depict distorted, dreamlike landscapes and bizarre, melting objects.

Dalí was not only a painter but also a skilled printmaker, sculptor, writer, and filmmaker.  In addition to his art, Dalí was known for his eccentric personality and flamboyant style.  He became a prominent figure in the Surrealist movement, a group of artists who sought to explore the subconscious mind and challenge traditional artistic norms.  Salvador Dalí passed away in 1989, but his legacy continues to be celebrated, and his influence on the art world remains significant.

Some of Salvador Dalí's most iconic paintings include: "The Persistence of Memory" (perhaps his most famous painting), "Swans Reflecting Elephants", and "The Discovery of America by Christopher Columbus".  Dalí was a prolific printmaker, with his most famous series of prints including "Biblia Sacra", "Divine Comedy", "Alice in Wonderland", "Changes in Great Masterpieces" and “The World Of Currier And Ives as interpreted by Salvador Dali”, the latter two series being published by the Phyllis Lucas Gallery, whose tradition of excellence is carried on by Hudson-John Gallery.
