Encouraging Salvador Dalí in his work is his Russian born wife Gala to whom submits all his work for her critic or approval. At Salvador Dalí's house, Portlligat, Cadaqués, 1957.

At their home in Portlligat, Cadaqués, in 1957, Salvador Dalí sits on an indoor staircase with his Russian-born wife, Gala. The artist, identifiable by his signature upturned mustache and a dark beret, gazes thoughtfully away. Gala, wearing an ornate necklace, looks toward him; she was a crucial presence in his creative life, offering critique and approval of all his work. The high-contrast scene is surrounded by bookshelves and illuminated by an ornate lamp with a distinctive wireframe shade.
