Contents:

This magnificent book explores, in pictures and text, the forces that have shaped Dali's life and work. Through a striking juxtaposition of superb photographs and reproductions of Dali's paintings, Robert Descharnes, a close friend of the artist and his wife for many years, reveals the sources of the painter's inspiration. This volume is a new edition of the reduced format version of The World of Salvador Dali which met with great success in the French and English languages. It contains 8 completely new pages of illustrations and comment.
