"The Dovelike Eyes of the Bride (Plate E)" is an etching and stencil with gilding on Arches created by Salvador Dalí for his 1971 series "Song of Songs of Solomon." From the edition of 520, the artwork is signed 'Dalí' lower right and 'LA' blind stamp lower left. The artwork ships framed and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Salvador Dalí’s "Song of Songs of Solomon, 1971" is a celebrated suite created as a visual interpretation of the biblical "Song of Songs," one of the most poetic and mystical texts in religious literature. Traditionally attributed to King Solomon, the "Song of Songs" is a collection of lyrical love poems that has been interpreted on both literal and allegorical levels, celebrating human love while also symbolizing the spiritual union between God and humanity. Its rich imagery of beauty, desire, devotion, and transcendence has inspired artists, theologians, and poets for centuries.

"Song of Songs of Solomon" occupies an attractive position within Dalí’s graphic oeuvre. The use of gilding adds visual richness and distinguishes these prints from standard editions, enhancing both their decorative impact and collectible appeal. The series reflects Dalí’s mature period, during which he increasingly explored spiritual, literary, and philosophical themes through his distinctive Surrealist vocabulary.

About the Work

About the Artist

Salvador Dalí (1904–1989) was the flamboyant genius of Surrealism, renowned for his dazzling imagination and technical mastery. While his iconic paintings of melting clocks, dreamlike landscapes, and fantastical figures made him a cultural phenomenon, Dalí’s graphic works reveal the full scope of his creativity. Through etchings, lithographs, and illustrated suites such as The Divine Comedy and Imaginations and Objects of the Future, he transformed myth, literature, and faith into vivid visual narratives that collectors continue to prize.
Beyond Surrealism, Dalí worked across film, fashion, photography, and design, collaborating with luminaries like Luis Buñuel and Alfred Hitchcock to Coco Chanel. His fascination with science, religion, and psychology gave his art a timeless quality, bridging the classical and the modern.
For today’s collectors, Dalí’s graphic works offer both prestige and accessibility, luxury objects infused with wit, wonder, and enduring allure, from one of art history’s most singular and celebrated personalities.
