The range leads with the melting clocks, in both The Persistence of Memory and the later Disintegration. Around them sit the stranger figure works: a woman whose head is a bouquet, a ballerina resolving into a skull, a figure at a window looking out to water. The religious and mythological pieces bring The Temptation of Saint Anthony. Palettes run warm, ochre and bone against Mediterranean blue.
Salvador Dali in Your Space
One Dali is usually enough for a wall. The images are busy in the mind rather than the eye, so they want plain surroundings: a pale wall, a simple frame, room to stand back. A study or a stair landing suits them, where there is time to look. Pair with mid-century furniture and warm metals. Keep other art on the same wall quiet.
