The melting watches symbolize the irrelevance of time, and the idea for time as a theme came from an experience Dali had in a dream. This also symbolizes Einstein's theory of Relativity in that time is relative and not fixed.

The creature in the middle of the painting is a self portrait of Dali himself.
There is a watch that is covered by ants on the table. Ants symbolized death or the female genitalia for Dali.

Dali made a new interpretation of the same painting later in 1954, called "The Disintegration of the Persistence of Memory". In this painting the original seems to be falling apart, and you can see something below the pieces of the original. There is a fish below the surface in the back. In contrast to the original, the fish represents life in this painting.
The color theme is also different, with a warmer color scheme and more red tones.
The disintegration of the original painting is an idea that symbolizes quantum mechanics and Einstein's Theory of Relativity.
