The Hippies – Woman with Cushion (Femme au Coussin),1969
ML/Argillet #387; Fields # 69-13 J
Original drypoint etching with hand coloring on archival paper.
Hand-signed and numbered at the lower margins.

In 1969, Pierre Argillet returned from India with many photographs, which Dalí used as a basis to create a series titled “Les Hippies,” his own interpretation of the “Love and Peace” years. The etchings reveal the artist’s superb, spontaneous, and consummate technique at the peak of his maturity. Outlandish, surrealist characters or situations appear through intricate whirls or golden halos. © The Argillet Collection.
