Salvador Dali Signed Limited Edition Lithograph

Salvador Dalí (1904-1989) Chevalier aux Papillons (Horseman with Butterflies), signed and numbered 252/300 in pencil from Les Anamorphoses series (lithographs), 1972. This fine lithograph was one in a suite of five on vellum (Arches), signed in pencil Numbered 252/300 and published by Jean Schneider and printed by ateliers Matthieu. Each of these lithographs changes and takes a different perspective when viewed from the reflection of a cylindrical mirror: butterflies become a rider and conquistadors in this piece. This is a rare litho and a prime example of the surreal imagination of Dalí and his obsession with optical phenomena. PROVENANCE: This signed and numbered lithograph printed on Arches vellum was purchased by me at an estate sale, along with other pieces of rare original art. I make no claim to expertise in Dalí- I am merely an avid collector of fine art. I have researched this piece carefully, however, and I believe it to be authentic. CONDITION NOTES: There are several areas of indentations to the lithograph, shown clearly in photos, both front and back. There are no punctures to the paper and I do not think they detract from the beauty of this work. This piece is unframed and will be carefully shipped & fully insured at my expense to protect this investment. Tracking number will be provided upon shipment, signature of receipt will be required.
