This is another great masterpiece by Salvador Dali. It has so much emotion, chaos, and destruction in it...it's amazing. It's violent, just like what war is in reality. Some people might find it disturbing, but I like because Dali does not try to sugar coat war. War is brutal and so is this painting. The two disfigured bodies demand your attention, this is not a painting that one would just take a quick glance at. The painting grabs you whether you want it to or not. That is the best thing about Dali's work; it is so disturbing and yet, so captivating at the same time. This painting represents the dark side of war that the media and government try to sweep under the rug. It's a bold painting and what Dali envisioned. If this doesn't make Dali the crowning jewel of the Surrealism movement, then I do not know what does.
