Why is 'The Persistence of Memory' Dali's most famous work?

The painting portrays a set of melting pocket watches, that are a result of his experimenting with soft and hard as themes. The idea of the watches came to Dali from the limited sense of time a person has while dreaming. They are also often thought to symbolize the irrelevance of time. There is an odd shape or figure lying on the beach in the painting. This is an abstract self portrait of Salvador Dali and it appears in many of his paintings. The figure is becoming translucent in the same way a person might not remember exactly what consistence something or someone was in a dream. The orange pocket watch on the table is covered by ants, which Dali often used to represent death or female genitalia. He drew inspiration for the surroundings from Cadaqués, a town in Spain.
