Dali used events in his childhood and throughout his young life in his symbolism. The Majority of his symbolism is based on his fears and phobias, for example the aggressive and dominating figure of his father is often painted by Dali in the form of a Lion, and a chest of drawers slightly open suggests the supressed sexuality of females and sexual discovery.

Each symbol has its own meaning, but most of them depict a certain fear of his using an image related to his fear extracted from an event in his life.
