Family of Marsupial Centaurs (1940) ─ Salvador Dalí "Dalí was attracted to the idea that children could be born and then return to the mother's womb whenever they wanted. In Family of Marsupial Centaurs he visualizes this, not in humans, but in centaurs, a fabulous creature from Greek mythology with the head and torso of a man, but with the lower body of a horse. Both in its content and its technique, the painting is a return to the Neoclassical style." ~ Emb art #art #Dalí #SalvadorDalí #Surrealism #Surrealist
