ART-074 After Salvador Dalí — "Arachne" Divine Comedy Series, Color Lithograph, Numbered 71/125

A haunting and mythologically charged image from Salvador Dalí's celebrated Divine Comedy series — Arachne, depicting the tragic weaver of Greek myth as Dalí imagined her within the landscape of Dante's Inferno: an elongated, spider-like form fused with a human figure, suspended in the surreal space between transformation and torment. It is one of the most visually distinctive compositions in the entire 100-print series, marrying Dalí's command of metamorphic imagery with the theological and mythological depth of Dante's text.

This is a numbered color lithograph, numbered 71/125 in the lower left margin and plate-signed lower right — from a smaller and more exclusive edition than many Divine Comedy prints, making this a particularly desirable pull. Presented under plexiglass with matting in an ornate gilt frame with a name plaque. Approximate sight size 12 × 9 inches; framed 23.5 × 20 × 1 inch.

About the Divine Comedy Series: Commissioned in 1960 by the Italian government for the 700th anniversary of Dante's birth, Dalí spent four years producing 100 watercolor compositions — one for each Canto — later translated into prints. The series is one of the great monuments of 20th-century illustrated publishing and remains among the most actively traded Dalí works on the secondary market worldwide.
