SALVADOR DALI (1904-1989) The Song of Songs, My Beloved among the lilies, 1971
etching and aquatint in colours enhanced with fine gold on Arches paper.
signed in pencil ‘Dali’ (lower right) and numbered ‘175/250’ (lower left)
57 x 38 cm
Framed. Certificate of authenticity.
The illustration is from a superbly drawn series inspired by the Song of Songs, also known as the Song of Solomon. It takes the form of a series of poems, alternating love songs describing the love relationship and marriage between a woman (the Shulamite) and a man. They express all the sensations of love: expectation, desire but also the grief of separation.
The engraving presented here is the illustration n°10 of the Song of Songs Chapter 2 Verse 16: “My beloved is mine and I am his; he feedeth among the lilies.”
