In 1976 Mario Pizzorni, collector and President of the Venezualan foreign exchange company, Italcambio, signed a contract with Dali for the creation of 15 watercolours that would later be adapted to bas reliefs in silver plate and bronze. Later other subjects were added such as “Hommage to Picasso” known also as Picasso , seen by Dali. The catalogue illustrates the series and shows the huge difference in appearance and character the different material of manufacture makes. Illustrated are examples of the works in watercolour, silver and patinated bronze. Our piece is referenced as number 539 in this catalogue raisonee.
