Dream is one of Dali's most famous and controversial paintings from the series
"Paranoia and War." A huge, almost amorphous head connected only by a thin,
unnaturally elongated thread of a "neck" with a dangling body left on the ground,
as if hovering above a joyless world. Dali shows us
the fragility of a dream symbolizing the fragility of life. Life, like a dream needs support,
even a dog's life If we remove the support (supports in the painting), both the
head and the dog will fall to the ground.
