PHOTOGRAPHIC ARCHIVE OF SALVADOR DALÍ FROM THE DISCONTINUED NEWSPAPER ‘EL ALCÁZAR'”

Description

The section dedicated to Salvador Dalí in the original photographic archive of the now-defunct newspaper ‘El Alcazar.’

An unparalleled photographic archive on Salvador Dalí, comprising around 200 photographs, all original vintage silver gelatin prints dating from the 1950s to the year of his death in 1989. Regarding authorship, some are by prestigious artists, others by anonymous professional authors, and some by photojournalists and agencies.

The archive is a genuine treasure, providing a detailed insight into over 40 years of the painter’s life in various facets, making it a unique and irreplaceable collection, possibly one of the best portfolios in private hands.

Its value lies in being the result of the collaborative efforts of dozens of professionals who shared time and, on some occasions, space with Salvador Dalí. It accumulates hundreds and hundreds, if not thousands, of hours of work over a span of almost 50 years.
