Venus in Furs

Joining in the sadomasochistic game suggested by the text from Sacher Masoch,  Salvador Dali found liberation and often portrayed himself as a man, a woman  or a hermaphrodite, either in pain or inflicting pain, in a setting where Eros and  Thanatos are laughing at each other. A major, powerful work, where Dali’s freedom  of line and thought are best expressed. 

20 original drypoint etchings with roulette, of which 16 are 15 x 11 inches and  4 are vignettes. Published in 1969
