EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic and iconic couple, Salvador Dali (1904-1989) and his wife, Gala, at their home in Port Lligat, Spain, in the year 1941. At the time, Dali was deeply engrossed in the creation of his groundbreaking book, "The Secret Life of Salvador Dali." The mysterious presence of the statue in the background of the image adds an intriguing layer to the scene. When asked about the statue during an interview, Dali, the renowned Surrealist artist, responded with his characteristic wit and enigma, "Just to make people ask questions." The statement reflects Dali's penchant for the unexpected and his desire to provoke thought and curiosity. The image, taken on February 21, 1941, is a historical snapshot of the couple during a significant period in Dali's artistic career. The photograph, with its rich historical context, offers a glimpse into the lives of these influential figures and their creative process. This photograph, from the International Newsreel (ILN) collection, is a testament to the enduring allure of Salvador Dali and Gala, their art, and their enigmatic personalities. The presence of the statue, with its air of mystery, only adds to the intrigue and fascination surrounding this remarkable couple.
