still life, reimagined ✨🎨🖌️
Painted thirty years apart, these works trace Salvador Dalí's evolution from a student mastering technique to a visionary exploring faith, form & the divine.
At just 22 years old, Dalí painted "Basket of Bread," a quiet, contemplative still life that reflects his early dedication to technical precision & influence of baroque masters.
Three decades later, he returns to the same subject in "Nature Morte Évangélique," now transformed through the lens of his Nuclear Mystical period, where geometry & dramatic lighting elevate bread & fish into symbols of faith & cosmic nourishment.
Together, they show how even the simplest objects can evolve into something sacred.
