— Dalí’s Faust series reinterprets Goethe’s timeless tragedy through the lens of surrealism and desire. The golden figure on the violet cover embodies both temptation and revelation, poised at the edge of light and madness.

Inside, Dalí’s images merge classical beauty with visionary distortion, translating Faust’s struggle for knowledge into metaphysical theater. Each page blurs the line between sin and salvation, dream and intellect. The work stands as a dialogue between art and the human condition — an exploration of ambition, illusion, and the eternal thirst for meaning.
