Questions about this Print

The size you set is the printed image, the part you see once the canvas is stretched. Beyond that size we add 1.2 in of blank canvas on every side, at no extra cost, so the stretcher bars have something to grip. A 17 × 21.7 in print therefore arrives as 19.4 × 24 in. Both numbers are shown in Your Selection above and change with the slider.

Yes. The slider covers every size up to 41.2 × 52.4 in, always in the proportions of the original. If you need something larger, or a size that has to fit a frame you already own, write to us with the title and the dimensions and we will tell you what is possible. Every print is made to order, so there is usually a way.

Because the original is an oil painting on canvas. We match the print medium to the original: oil paintings go on canvas, works on paper go on fine art paper. Our canvas is natural cotton, 400 g/m² Canvas, acid-free and pH neutral, and its woven texture gives the most natural impression of Dalí's original oil painting. The finish is satin/gloss, which keeps the depth of the dark tones the way varnish does on a painting in a museum; a matte canvas looks dull and pale next to it. More about our print media.

Start with the original, which measures 125 × 160 cm. A print at or near that size reads the way the artist judged it. Printing smaller is easy; enlarging a small original changes its character. For the wall, above a sofa or a sideboard aim for two thirds to three quarters of the furniture width, and hang the center at eye level. Cut paper to size and tape it to the wall before you order. The original hangs in Salvador Dalí Museum, St. Petersburg, USA. Full size guide.

About the Painting

Salvador Dalí's "Still Life - Fast Moving (Nature Morte Vivante)" from 1956 is a masterful display of his quintessential surrealist approach, rendered with such meticulous precision that it almost feels hyper-real. The painting is a stunning collision of stillness and dynamism, encapsulating the tension between the static and the kinetic.

Dominating the scene is a table set with an array of objects, each caught in a moment of transformation. A glass of wine, precariously spilling, captures the eye with its vivid red hue against the muted tones of the tablecloth. Nearby, a knife seems to hover in mid-air, its sharp blade gleaming with an unsettling presence. The fruit—an apple and a pear—appear to levitate, contributing to the painting's overall sense of movement and disarray.

The background juxtaposes this chaos with an expansive, tranquil seascape, punctuated by the sudden presence of a bird mid-flight, adding to the surreal interplay of motion and stillness. A bottle, seemingly transparent, adds a touch of ghostly translucence to the composition.

What truly sets this piece apart is Dalí's manipulation of perspective and space. The red cube on the right, intricately patterned, creates a stark geometric contrast to the organic forms surrounding it. Its sharp angles and vibrant color stand in sharp relief against the softer, more fluid forms of the other objects.

In "Still Life - Fast Moving," Dalí challenges our perception of reality, bending the laws of physics and time to create a tableau that is both haunting and mesmerizing. It's a brilliant encapsulation of his ability to merge the fantastical with the everyday, making the ordinary extraordinary through his visionary lens.
