In one of his works connecting edible objects with death, Dalí invents a macabre banquet incorporating all kinds of culinary utencils, with a place of honor reserved for bread, fruit, and meat. The golden hues of an autumn afternoon serve to soften this violent scene,

According to Dalís explanation, “This face formed with people from the Ampurdan, who are the greatest paranoiacs, was painted after having a conversation about Arcimboldo with Jose Maria Sert.” The ability of the viewer to see these pictures as double images depends on his “degree of paranoia,” meaning his ability to systematically organize the hallucinations produced by dreams.

- oil on canvas -

- (former Peter Watson collection) Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia -

In this work, the mortal connotation of foodstuffs is more aggresively expressed. This is not a banquet, but quite the contrary - there is no choice of foods. The last resources are within the strangulated body, from which nothing edible can emerge. Dalí thus expresses his tragic and premonitory anguish about the war.
