Salvador Dali Drawing Called CHRIST OF ST JOHN OF THE CROSS
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:4813035 |
I've had this picture about 10 years and acquired it at a Church fund raising sale. The label on the back reads "Salvador Dali (Spanish, 1904 - ) CHRIST OF ST JOHN OF THE CROSS, Drawing, 30" x 40", 76 x 101 cm. Collection of Mr. and Mrs. A. Reynolds Morse". I researched AR Morse, he collected Dali art and died at age 97 in 2000. I am not a fan of art, Dali or the surrealist style, but I bought this because I like the religious subject and the brown... color tones. Salvador Dali died in January of 1989, so I think this was made sometime prior to his death (because he was Spanish and born in 1904 as the label reads, yet it's blank for a date of death). It appears to be in the original wooden frame. Original brown paper backing is torn in places and it has 2 little bumps at the bottom to hold the bottom edge away from the wall. Frame measures a little larger than 12" x 15" and the visible part of the picture about 10-1/2" x 13-1/2". The frame has dings and scuffs all around it but it's still tight. The glass makes it hard to get a good photo so I took lots of pics to help you see the details and you can see areas of glare from the window light. The only 'signature' I find is the tiny circle just below Jesus toes. It has the letter G above letters that may be DALI but they're not easy to make out. Since I'm not an expert in art prints, I trust you to look the photos over and ask questions. I do not accept returns because I'm downsizing, not running a business. However, I will consider a refund if I'm notified within 4 days of receipt that there's a problem. If agreed to, it must be returned within 14 days, in EXACT same condition as sent, repackaged / shipped in the same manner as sent, and at buyers expense. After 14 days, no refunds. Ask any questions. Thanks for looking.
