In this bleak and infinite dreamscape, hard objects become inexplicably limp, while metal attracts ants like rotting flesh. Yet realistic details are included, too: the distant cliffs depict the coastline of Dalí's native Catalonia. Tapping deep into the nonrational mechanisms of his mind--dreams, the imagination and the subconscious-- and utilizing what he called \"the usual paralyzing tricks of eye-fooling,\" Dalí claimed that he made this painting with \"the most imperialist fury of precision,\" but only \"to systematize confusion and thus to help discredit completely the world of reality.\" Curator Anne Umland unpacks this uncanny masterpiece, placing it within Dalí's long career as artist, author, critic, impresario and provocateur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.2 x 8.8 x 7.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 28, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47464489582845,"sku":"9781633451759","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/tqkU0T9VN_9781633451759.webp?v=1777261349","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/salvador-dali-the-persistence-of-memory-moma-one-on-one-series-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
