Salvador Dalí demonstrates the origin of the "oursin", a liquid which takes on a particular form. Here he is seen using milk and water. At Salvador Dalí's house, Portlligat, Cadaqués 1957.

At his home in Portlligat, Cadaqués, in 1957, Salvador Dalí demonstrates the origin of the “oursin,” a liquid which takes on a particular form. In profile, wearing a soft, pointed hat and distinctive embroidered shirt, he leans over a table, deeply engrossed. He holds a magnifying glass to examine the effects of splattering milk and water on a dark surface. The artist's tools for this experiment—the inspirational sea urchins, glasses of liquid, and a paintbrush—are arranged before him.
