We all need someone (or something) to lean on... even Dalí. When #SalvadorDali was a child he discovered a crutch in the attic of his family house. He would never part with it. The object gave him confidence, even arrogance, helping him become “Dalí.” Later, he would depict crutches in many of his artworks, most often to symbolize impotence and death. #TheDali #DaliDecoded Images: Salvador Dalí (1) The Weaning of Furniture-Nutrition (1934), (2) Average Atmospherocephalic Bureaucrat in the Act of Milking a Cranial Harp (1933), (3) The Ghost of Vermeer of Delft Which Can Be Used as a Table (1934).
