Recordant a Figura en una finestra




I could not help seeing a resemblance of this picture with Figura en una Finestra painting. Or I may just be biased by my Dalí infatuation.
In his painting you will see Dalí’s sister (Ana María) looking out at the window, to the seashore, in the vacation home that the family owned in Cadaqués. In my picture, there I am, looking out through boulders forming a window, to the seashore, in the Baths of Virgin Gorda. Both windows, vacations, to the seashore, and a boat in the horizon.

Dalí painted several portraits of his sister and all were included in Dalí’s first one-man exhibition, held at the Dalmau Gallery, Barcelona, November 14-27, 1925. These portraits were considered unusual because the face of the subject is hidden. It has been said that Dalí was inspired by Ingres Le Bain Turc (1862). There is also a sketch by Picasso about Le Bain Turc (1968). 

So let's remember:
Ingres 
Picasso 
Simon Kidd 
y de parte de Freddy: Juan Rosario (1933)
