Montegrappa Salvador Dali Surrealista Pens
Limited Editions
Montegrappa?s second Dal¡ pen, the Surrealista, has been inspired by the painting, Apparition of Face and Fruit Dish on a Beach (1938). The picture shows fruit on or in a fruit bowl shaped much like a wine glass. A human face, in a style that would appear again in one of Dal¡?s later works, is seen below the fruit, the handle of the fruit bowl acting as the bridge of the nose. The texture of the face is the sand of the beach, while on the sand is a cloth and a snapped rope.
