Salvador Dalì was the leader of the Surrealists’ group, which investigated the realms of the human psyche and dreams. In his paintings, sculptures, jewellery, and designs for furniture and movies, Dalí explored a deeply erotic dimension, studying the writings of Richard von Krafft-Ebing (1840-1902) and Sigmund Freud, and conceiving what he called the “paranoiac-critical method” to abet his creative process.

As he expressed it, in his painting Dalì aimed "to materialise the images of concrete irrationality with the most imperialistic fury of precision […] in order that the world of imagination and of concrete irrationality may be as objectively evident […] as that of the exterior world of phenomenal reality". Dalì strove to make the world of his paintings persuasively real – in his words, to make the irrational concrete.
