E - The Eye of God

The Eye of God, or  L’Oeil de Dieu, is not the title Salvador Dali gave this print, however it is the dealer title, or marketing name.  He created it for one of the illustrations in The Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini.  This is not from the book, it's a later print.  While some think "Oh!  A Dali print!  That's valuable!"  Not really.  Dali would sign multiple blank pages that would later be used for prints.  This is signed in pencil in the margin. It's worth a few hundred, but as my mother used to say, "Not enough to retire on."   I actually got this at a yard sale with a pile of other artwork for $20 total, so less than $1!  My P post is another one from the same sale, and that is actually worth more. 

The E poem for this artwork is here.
