Description

Dali muses on Tristan and Isolde

Handwritten manuscript in French by Dali, one page, 6.5 x 8.5, San Domenico Palace Hotel letterhead, no date but likely circa 1930s. A four-line literary manuscript on Tristan and Isolde by Dali, identified below in another hand in pencil. In full (translated): "Tristan the spector of the souvenir, of the remembrance of Isolde defores you / You have become mad with love / You see trees everywhere." In very good condition, with intersecting folds and overall creasing. The tragic love story of Tristan and Isolde was a recurrent theme in Dali’s works and imagination, best exemplified in his 1944 surrealist painting 'Tristan and Isolde.' A superb poetic piece by the great surrealist artist.
