Watched by his wife Gala, Salvador Dalí works on his experiments with the sea urchin holding a swan feather and moving backwards and forewards thus marking the blackened paper. These experiments he is carrying out at his atelier in his Spanish home at Portlligat, Cadaqués, on the Costa Brava 1957.
In the intimate setting of his atelier in Portlligat, Salvador Dalí, watched by his wife Gala, conducts an artistic experiment in 1957. Wearing a distinctive patterned vest and pointed cap, Dalí leans over a cluttered table, using a swan feather and a sea urchin to mark a sheet of blackened paper that Gala holds for inspection. The creative atmosphere is enhanced by the eclectic objects covering the table, including several dark, spiny sea urchins and a tall glass containing a milky liquid.
