Spectre du soir sur la plage 1935

"Spectre du soir sur la plage" (Evening Spectre on the Beach) is a 1935 oil on canvas painting by Salvador Dalí. The surrealist painting depicts a desolate landscape with a large rock formation in the center of the composition, which resembles a large, hollowed-out eye. Two figures walk across the beach in the foreground, seemingly oblivious to the looming rock. The painting showcases Dali's signature style characterized by dream-like imagery, exaggerated perspectives, and a focus on the subconscious mind. This painting represents the artist's fascination with the subconscious and the psychological exploration of the human experience.
