Near fine in a very good dust jacket. Housed in the original slipcase. The infamous Surrealist in full colour and in his own words Picasso called Dali "an outboard motor that's always running." Dali thought himself a genius with a right to indulge in whatever lunacy popped into his head. Painter sculptor writer and film maker Salvador Dali 1904-1989 was one of the century's greatest exhibitionists and eccentrics -- and was rewarded with fierce controversy wherever he went. He was one of the first to apply the insights of Sigmund Freud and psychoanalysis to the art of painting. He brought extraordinary sensitivity imagination and concern for precision to bear upon submerged levels of consciousness. Draeger hardcover books

Prominent Spanish surrealist painter Salvador Dali was a skilled draftsman best known for the striking images in his surrealist work. His painterly skills are often attributed to the influence of Renaissance masters. His best-known work The Persistence of Memory was completed in August 1931. Dali's expansive artistic repertoire included film sculpture and photography in collaboration with a range of artists in a variety of media. Dali attributed his "love of everything that is gilded and excessive my passion for luxury and my love of oriental clothes" to an "Arab lineage" claiming that his ancestors were descended from the Moors. hardcover books

18167461Mexico City: Mariano Ontiveros 1816. First edition. 16mo 15 x 10.5 cm pp 128 179-213 11. There is a gap as noted in the pagination which is present in all copies: it is a printer's error as nothing is missing from the text.The author notes that his book is in part a translation from the Italian of Clavijero and also drawn from the work of Fr. Xavier Francisco Alegre on the Jesuits in New Spain at that time unpublished. The first part is a vigorous defense of the Jesuit order still forbidden in Mexico. Thereafter he focuses on Baja California with much on Fr. Salvatierra Ugarte Piccolo et al. as well as the customs of the native tribes of the area and a description of the region. An appendix seeks to prove that Mexico had been originally evangelized by St. Thomas the apostle and perhaps even St. Matthew! Another appendix gives a thorough account of the distribution of the 1000 copies of this book of which only a handful of copies were for sale. Often described as one of the rarest California books it seldom appears at auction and presumably is quite rare in the trade.
