[Dalí, Salvador. (1904–1989)]

Original Press Photograph with Los Niños Cantores

An amusing original 1967 press photograph of the great surrealist painter, gesturing wildly among a group of young singers from the Argentinian children's choir Los Niños Cantores. Press caption at the upper margin reads: "Artist Salvadore Dali, waving a staff, went to a performance of the Los Ninos Cantores, an Argentine children's choir, 12/25 at the St. Regis Hotel in New York. Father Marcello Coltro, choir director, is at far right. Dali has been commissioned to illustrate the cover of a record album being brought out by the group." Annotations, stamps, and a press clipping in Spanish on the verso. Several surface creases and small indentations, otherwise in very good condition. 9 x 7 inches. (14724)
