Salvador Dali Paintings and Prints
Salvador Felipe Jacinto Dali I Domenech was born at 8:45 on
the morning of May 11, 1904 in the small agricultural town
of Figueres, Spain. Figueres is located in the foothills of the
Pyrenees, only sixteen miles from the French border in the
principality of Catalonia. The son of a prosperous notary,
Dali spent his boyhood in Figueres and at the family's summer
home in the coastal fishing village of Cadaques where his
parents built his first studio. As an adult, he made his home
with his wife Gala in nearby Port Lligat. Many of his
paintings reflect his love of this area of Spain.
The young Dali attended the San Fernando Academy of Fine
Arts in Madrid. Early recognition of Dali's talent came with
his first one-man show in Barcelona in 1925. He became
internationally known when three of his paintings,
including The Basket of Bread (now in the Museum's
collection), were shown in the third annual Carnegie
International Exhibition in Pittsburgh in 1928.
