This is background information.

Salvador Dalí is perhaps the most broadly known member of the Surrealist movement of the early twentieth century. Sigmund Freud had a strong influenced on Dali . His avant-garde style explored consciousness and dream-like states. He did this through exaggerated landscapes and bizarre or grotesque imagery. Using the means of painting, Dalí explored these ideas with a meticulous hand and inventive wit. He also used sculpture, printmaking, film and literature.

This is the tirage.

The edition size of the Salvador Dali Conquete du Cosmos is 585. This set contains both Cosmos I and II. The series includes 195 (1/195 – 195/195) on Arches, CLXXXXV (I/CLXXXXV – CLXXXXV/CLXXXXV) on Rives, and 195 proofs on both papers. The publishers split the publication of the edition between 1974 and 1977 because they felt it would be difficult to sell all of the prints at one time.
