Galatea of the Spheres, Lithography, 1988

This lithograph on paper, measuring 66 × 50 cm, is a sublime representation of Dalí’s mature surrealist style, fused with elements of optical abstraction and scientific fascination.

The composition portrays Galatea, a recurring muse and symbolic figure in Dalí's work—this time visualized as an ethereal, floating arrangement of spheres. These spheres form the fragmented image of a woman’s bust, rendered in neutral and warm gradients, hovering against a cool, softly blended background. The delicate precision and airy space between the forms evoke a sense of suspended motion, weightlessness, and cosmic order.

This artwork communicates deep emotional stillness and intellectual curiosity, blurring boundaries between form and void, portrait and particle. It's an iconic expression of Dalí’s fascination with atomic structure, perception, and divine geometry—ideas that deeply influenced his post-war art.

Perfect for art libraries, modern interiors, galleries, and collector’s displays, “Galatea of the Spheres” is a compelling bridge between classical beauty and modern physics, crafted with timeless surrealist elegance by Salvador Dalí (1904–1989).
