That Dali himself never sold any; it was always his wife Gala who did the selling. She was responsible for his career and he claimed that without her in his life, he would have been lying in a gutter somewhere. She always whacked a massive expensive frame on the works too which would be used to heavily mark up the price! Apparently, the frame was non-negotiable.

The subject matter of Salvador Dali's work varied among his different art periods. He started with simple landscapes of his home and then started focusing on "erotic desires" concerning grotesque dreams and sights.

Most of his paintings were what is called surrealism. A surrealistic painting portrays something that often is unexpected in some way, in that it defies laws, sense and logic.An example would be the painting "the persistence of memory" that portrays a set of melting pocket watches.
