Salvador Dalí

Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domènech, known as Salvador Dalí, was a Spanish surrealist artist born on 11 May 1904 in Figueres [9][4]. He is widely recognized for his technical skill, precise draftsmanship, and the striking and often bizarre imagery that defined his body of work [1]. Associated with the Surrealist movement [7], Dalí became one of its most prominent and enduring figures.

Throughout his career, Dalí worked across a broad range of genres, including still life, portrait, landscape painting, genre painting, allegory, and religious art [12]. This diversity of subject matter, combined with his meticulous technique, allowed him to produce works of considerable range and ambition [1][12].

Dalí died on 23 January 1989 in Figueres, the same city in which he had been born more than eight decades earlier [8][9]. He held the title of Marquess of Dalí de Púbol [1], a distinction that reflected the cultural recognition he had received during his lifetime. His name in his native Catalan language is recorded as Salvador Dalí i Domènech [10].
