EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic and eccentric personality of the renowned Surrealist artist, Salvador Dali (1904-1989), at his house in Port Lligat, Spain in 1958. Dali, known for his innovative and thought-provoking art, surprises his guests with an unexpected fashion statement. Wearing a magnificent tricorne hat, fashioned entirely out of pastry, Dali adds yet another layer of intrigue to his already intriguing persona. The historical image, taken on March 7, 1958, showcases Dali's flair for the dramatic and his ability to challenge conventional norms. The tricorne hat, a symbol of the 18th century, is an unusual yet fitting accessory for the avant-garde artist, who was at the zenith of his career during this time. This image, from the International Newsreel (ILN) collection, is a testament to Dali's enduring impact on the art world and his ability to shock and delight in equal measure. The photograph, taken just five years before Dali's death in 1989, remains an important historical document of a truly unique artist and his groundbreaking contributions to Surrealism.
