Salvador Dalí
King Lear. 1968. drypoint on Rives wove paper. 17 x 12 cm (38 x 28 cm). Signed and numbered. - A few barely visible pinpoint stains. Overall very good with a decidedly nuanced and burnished impression, the colour fresh and intense.
Michler/Löpsinger 281a. - One of 150 copies. - With the etching King Lear, Dalí interprets the central drama of Shakespeare's tragedy of the same name in surrealist imagery. With expressive lines, Dalí depicts the aged king in a moment of inner turmoil and existential loneliness. The figure appears deformed and floating, surrounded by fragmented symbols of royal power.
