Salvador Dali
(1904-1989)
Salvador Felipe Jacinto Dali I Domenech was born at 8:45 on the
morning of May 11, 1904 in the small agricultural town of Figueres,
Spain. Figueres is located in the foothills of the Pyrenees, only
sixteen miles from the French border in the principality of Catalonia.
The son of a prosperous notary, Dali spent his boyhood in Figueres and
at the family's summer home in the coastal fishing village of Cadaques
where his parents built his first studio. As an adult, he made his home
with his wife Gala in nearby Port Lligat. Many of his paintings reflect
his love of this area of Spain.
