Acrylic on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.
Signed on the front.
This painting is from the group of ( mostly portraits ) called "Bizarre Harmony".
Loosely based on one of artist's earlier watercolour on paper, exploring part of a human mind which is subconscious.
Title was borrowed from quite famous Dali's painting.
Dali and Freud met on 19 July 1938 at Freud’s home in London. Dali showed him Metamorphosis of Narcissus. He hoped his painting would win him Freud’s approval. Freud apparently commented that “in classic paintings I look for the unconscious, but in your paintings I look for the conscious,” which Dalà took to be a criticism.
This painting is about that meeting.
