Auction end date: 2/10/2012
Sale price: $200
Details: No. EA.
NOTE: This purports to be an original etching from the "Song of Songs of Solomon" intaglio suite officially titled Return, return, Shulamite (Field #71-17L; pp. 70-71). In fact, this print is a forgery. It is a Leon Amiel restrike (Field p. 238). In the best case scenario, this forgery is made from the original plate, but the signature is not by the hand of Dali. Apparently comes with a COA from Kass Meridian Gallery out of Chicago, Il.

Salvador Dali Etching FORGERY: Song of Songs of Solomon: "Grapes" (Let him kiss mee...).

Auction end date: 2/10/2012
Sale price: $200
Details: No. EA.
NOTE: This purports to be an original etching from the "Song of Songs of Solomon" intaglio suite officially titled Let him kiss mee with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine (Field #71-17B; p. 70). In fact, this print is a forgery. It is a Leon Amiel restrike (Field p. 238). In the best case scenario, this forgery is made from the original plate, but the signature is not by the hand of Dali (In my opinion, a decent signature, but the "D" is all wrong). Apparently comes with a COA from Marlin Art, Inc. out of Deer Park, NY.
