Thread: Salvador Dali

I can't remember if I have posted this before LOL how stupid is that?? I had a look through the last few pages and can't see it but feel free to list your expletives here is I have posted it....

Can you see a mans face and torso taking up almost the entire height of the painting (a torreador to be precise)? When you have found that.. Can you find the bull?

No takers? ;)

The Torreador: Right in the middle, the green patch is his tie, the white area surronding it is his shirt and collar. Just above that, the statues midriff is his chin, the dark line above that is his mouth. The statues left breat is his nose. the staues head is his eye and the pink oval.kidney shape above is his beret. The red area to the left is his bullfighters cape and the spangles to the right are his armour.

The Bull: Is incorporated into the torreadors armour immediately below the most colourfuil section.

The face located in the top right of the painting is Dali's wife who was a well know sex freak and lover of children.. sick!!

The boy in the bottom right of the painting is a self portrait of Dali as a child

LOL I must be bassackwards ... I seen the Bull first, then found the bull fighter.

Here's another... The swans reflecting in the lake are elephant heads, ears and trunk... the tree trunks reflecting in the lake are the elephants legs. See than man in the white shirt?

Both are good ones. Took me a couple of times to see the torero.

There's a wonderful Dali museum in St. Petersburg, Florida. Dali was never there but apparently the museum bought over 1,000 pieces in the early 80's. Very nice place to visit.

Yeeeeeah I heard about that place Bill... I am under the impression that th mjority of Dali's paintings are held by that particular museum. There is also a gallery in Figueres, Spain which contains a lot of sculptures.

Alrighty then...ROB...I'm officially blind from searching for all figures and you'll be getting the bill in the e-mail...lol

Ok Like pet...foundthe bull first and then the tie and the face...very interesting pictures...personally I think DALI smoked abit too much weed and then painted...but I love his melting tiem piece best and I have not been smoking any weed thank you very much....lol

I never found the bull.

Sharon...You almost have to go cross eyed to see the bull but read Robs' description and you might still see it...or drink another four cups of espresso and that should work...lol

Look away and then come back to it. Hint: the horns are very visible.

Sharon.. I say bull... It is actually a forward facing bulls head, not the entire bull (located in the torreadors armour).

Bee... Ahh Yes, the melting Time piece. Its called Persistance of Memory and is generally considered his best ever work of art. He did another based on that painting which was all chopped up into bits (I dont mean physically, imagine the painting but exploded into sections).

Here they are...

WOW...I've never seen the second one...I like the time ones because in an odd way they make real sense to me...lol

He has done 3 or 4 paintings all including the metling clocks :)

I love this forum...I learn so much and become more annoying to my family when I start the 'did you know...'...lol...although they love the jokes.

dali rocks

Dali, Picasso, and MC Escher have always been my favorites.
