AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Thought of Dalí.
Original, old, and rare lithograph based on an original gouache by Dali from 1979, with bright colors and drawn into the plate.
from the very well-known series FLORDALI.
Op parchment Arches Cotton Privilège 41 x 32 cm, limited edition of 800 copies, 1979 copyright.
Published by DALART GALA, with authorization from Dali. Comes with a certificate of authenticity. (see photos)
This edition was intended for the first 800 visitors of the FLORDALI gouache exhibition but was kept for years in a storage room at the hotel MAURICE in Paris, where Dali spent most of the year.
Never been framed. The lithograph is of very good quality.
Professionally packed and insured shipping.
La Pensée is part of the FlorDali series. This series is inspired by drawings of plants from the 17th and 18th centuries. The landscape is divided by straight lines that extend further in perspective, giving the scene the appearance of a dream or a mysterious world.
Created during a period when Dali possessed his greatest surrealist powers. The work is exuberant in color and highly detailed, and the image has a deeper meaning in Dalinian terms. Driven by the desire to place seemingly unrelated images and symbols side by side, Dali achieves an artistic effect that unites and transforms; he creates something new that has never existed before. Dali manages to change the meaning of the images, their interrelationships, and essentially creates a new concept and a 'way of seeing' in his own surrealist style, unique and inimitable.
