Dali x Kuniyoshi

Voluptas Mors, photograph by Philippe Halsman (in collaboration with Salvador Dalí), 1951

Most people know of Salvador Dali; a Spanish painter, whose imaginative
renderings catapulted the surrealist movement pre-World War II. Dali’s imagination was distinctively authentic, eccentrically unique, and far-out groovy, man! But from where did his imagination propagate? Perhaps you can find slight similarities in
Utagawa Kuniyoshi’s woodblock prints, circa 1840-ish, and Dali's collaborative work, Voluptas Mors, that has wiggled it's way into pop-culture.
