Horses were one of the motifs frequently used by Dali in various works, as they represented for him strength, freedom, elegance and the spiritual dimension of man.Dali often referred to figures from Greek and Roman mythology, such as Pegasus and the horses of Helios pulling the chariot of the Sun. For him, the symbolism of the horse was universal and multidimensional. Also evident in "Dalinian Horses" are references to medieval art and the Spanish heritage from which it originated.The "Dalinian Horses" series was executed in various techniques, including lithography and printmaking, which allowed the artist to experiment with different styles and effects. As a result, he was able to fully show the dynamism and drama of the horse figure. In Dali's series, horses are not ordinary animals - they often hover above the ground, alluding to transcendence and the spiritual dimension of life. Their silhouettes are sometimes imbued with anxiety, while remaining majestic. In Dali's work, the horse is a symbol of strength, but also of ambivalent emotions: freedom and wildness, and at the same time subjugation and oppression.The fixtures shown in the visuals are for illustrative purposes and do not constitute a commercial offer.
