The Amorous Rest from Dalí's 1974 Paradise Lost Suite
Le Repos Amoureux (The Amorous Rest) is an original etching by Salvador Dalí from the 1974 suite Le Paradis Terrestre (Earthly Paradise), an suite of original intaglio illustrating Milton's Paradise Lost. This elegant work features Dalí’s signature fluid line work and "limp" forms to depict a moment of surreal, dreamlike intimacy. Executed with the fine-point precision of the intaglio process, the piece captures a sense of profound stillness and classical grace, reimagined through a Surrealist lens
