Description:
La Madona is a striking lithograph based on Salvador Dalí’s original 1952 drawing, showcasing his unique blend of surrealism and religious iconography. The composition presents a fragmented yet divine representation of the Madonna, her form dissolving into a mesmerizing interplay of geometric shapes, spheres, and swirling patterns. This intricate rendering reflects Dalí’s fascination with mysticism, atomic theory, and the deconstruction of classical imagery.
