Sultan fumant le narguilé et figure féminin pour le projet d’illustration de l’ouvrage Les Mille et Une Nuits 1966

This surrealist artwork by Salvador Dalí, created in 1966, is a captivating illustration for "One Thousand and One Nights." The figure of a sultan with a red turban, smoking a pipe, is depicted in a dreamlike setting with a female figure, perhaps a genie, whose body is almost entirely obscured by wispy smoke. The piece exemplifies Dalí’s characteristic use of vivid colors and dreamlike imagery, inviting viewers to delve into the depths of their own imagination.
