But fortunately, the image could find its way into the right hands back and the popularity of Caspar David Friedrich was enhanced yet once again that even after his death.

So have the romantic works of Caspar David Friedrich their effect over the years unfolded not always exactly so, as is the case at the present time. Because his picture compositions inspire much yearning, often strangely beautiful fills the heart of art lovers in a modern world. Just because many of Caspar David Friedrich paintings represent nature in their fragile romantic and often raw beauty, still have large quantities of prints find their way into households across the nation.

Is virtually impossible to get an own and original Caspar David Friedrich. The painting very rarely find their way to the auction and traded as well as the works of many other artists geniuses, for vast sums of money.

Because a work by Caspar David Friedrich means also a Piece of German art history, thus making it a distinctive heritage. And so the artist, who often recognize themselves in the characters of his paintings can be alive so long after his demise in German minds. “” Because painting such as the chalk cliffs on Rugen “or the view of a port” did this man forever immortal.

The exhibition includes signs of the times, when the artist had a relationship of friendship, deeply changed his life. Friendship with Federico Garcia Lorca was a stimulating artistic relationship, occasionally toxic and slightly positive for the poet for the artist. With him and his colleagues in the Academy of fine arts of San Fernando, Dali discovered Cubism and Dadaism, the major classical works, and the Main topics of the international literature, which he reproduced later in these characters that are unique in the world, and in his first book. Also some works that were influenced by the psychoanalysts Sigmund Freud, formed almost a child’s relationship with the Dali belong to the exhibition. The worm and the Angel is the echo of the duality and everything that is hidden in every being.

As the egg, another element that fascinated by Dali, the shell of the snail under a tough appearance hides a weak inner side, which must be protected and maintained. The discovery of this inner page can bring to the liberation, which can be dangerous, then we need to crave, if we become like the snail, which is touched by an Angel, a being, wishing that goes from a standstill to fly to the gods. The tourists who are staying in a residence Venice, can admire also the popular elephant in the room, and this is Dali interpretation of the power, a temptation of St. Anthony could not resist, and the is represented with an obelisk.

The exhibited works include also recreations such as space Venus, a representation of the transience of human beauty and the unlimited nature of the art beauty that is eternal. The glass sculptures are the fruit of the cooperation with the gallery shop Daum Cristallerie in Paris in the 1960s. Dali often used the glass to create works with a nearly oil-like, virtual, or beautiful texture, such as Cyclops. Dali was not always popular, and he is not by all people, the Museum on the occasion of a holiday in Venice g visit, be popular. It is however sure that the painter, poet, and 360-degree artist, as he defines in his home town of Figueres, leaves nobody completely intact. Alba L
