Original drawing and hand-written dedication by Salvador Dalí - important certificate of authenticity from the Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation Salvador Dalí (1904–1989) MAO TSE-TOUNG. POÈMES. Éditions Argillet, Paris, 1967. A copy of the first French edition of Mao Tse-Tung's poems illustrated by Salvador Dalí, edited by Pierre Argillet. Large-format volume, preserving its original publisher's case. Illustrated with the original engravings conceived by Dalí for this edition. Exceptionally enriched with a wide original autographed drawing by Salvador Dalí, made directly on the inner cover and the book’s endpaper, executed with a blue ballpoint pen and occupying both facing pages. The composition, of a fully surreal nature, incorporates automatic lines, biomorphic shapes, and fantastical figures characteristic of the artist's spontaneous graphic language. The volume constitutes a singular testimony to Dalí's habit of personally intervening in certain copies destined for friends, colleagues, or close collectors, endowing them with the character of a one-of-a-kind piece. With publisher's case. Paris, 1967. "PLEASE PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE PURCHASE PRICE AT AUCTION IN 2007 €26,300"
