Moon Research

Posted by Maddi Lingard • 3 weeks ago

The image shows a painting by Salvador Dali of a night sky, with a moon looking over a city. The moon is to the right of the painting, it is yellow with a person's face looking down on the skyscrapers. There are white stars in the sky and high up at the top left of the painting, over the city is another plain white moon. In the foreground there is a lake or water, with an orange prawn in the right bottom corner.

'The Moon' (1929) painting by Salvador Dalí

The image shows a blue sky background with white moon in the top right-hand corner. The moon has a face drawn in black. On the bottom left-hand corner is a white hand which is making an 'OK' gesture by holding the thumb and index finger together. On the bottom of the painting is what looks like a large white cloud. The cloud looks like it forms a neck or body for the moon's head and arm.

I have been looking at moon art as inspiration for my work. Photography, paintings, prints and fashion.
