Salvador Dalí, his wife Gala and a Canadian painter friend Philipps watch fascinated as the "oursin" draws the paper, this time with a light dried up flower. At Dalí's house, Portlligat, Cadaqués 1975
In a dimly lit room at his Portlligat home, Salvador Dalí, his wife Gala, and Canadian painter Philipps watch fascinated as a sea urchin ("oursin") draws on paper with a dried flower. Their attention is captivated by the brightly illuminated table where shells and tools are arranged. Standing in silhouette, Gala is flanked by a seated Philipps in a knit cap and glasses, and a partially seen Dalí leaning in from the left. The dramatic lighting creates a stark contrast between the shadowed observers and their glowing object of focus. Cadaqués, 1975.
