It can be discouraging to hear about a major painting selling into a private collection, knowing it will rarely be seen. However it is something to rejoice over when a major painting sells to a museum and can be seen by the public.
The 1934 painting ‘Enigmatic Elements in the Landscape,’ the surrealist painting by Salvador Dalí was sold to the Gala-Salvador Foundation for $11,000,000 US.
“This is a prodigy of a painting, immaculate, intense and just a very good painting. It’s simply marvelous,” the director of Antoni Pitxot said.
It was last exhibited in 1999 in New York City’s Guggenheim Museum. I suggest you get to the Salvador Dali Museum in FIgueras to see it and many other great work by the Maestro.
