American Trotting Horses No. 1

 American Trotting Horses No.1  from the series “The World Of Currier And Ives as interpreted by Salvador Dali” published by Phyllis Lucas, New York. There are six original limited edition lithographs plus a title page “Dali’s Presentation” in the series. Each of the six lithographs has a miniature reproduction of the original  Currier & Ives subject at the bottom of  the image. American Trotting Horses   No. 1 is a perfect example of Dali’s whimsical sense of the absurd. In this interpretation the great master replaces the trotting horses with one of his favorite subjects…Butterfly’s. Dali’s audience is treated to a delightful image of  these magical winged creatures pulling what looks like a giant bicycle that can hardly avoid tickling anyone’s imagination. This original lithograph is in excellent condition and is signed in pencil by the artist  on Japon paper and numbered XIX/L
