My favorite piece of art is by Salvador Dali, it is called the Very Happy Horse.
This summer, I went to visit his house and his museum in Spain and while I really liked pretty much all of his works, I was especially struck by this one.
At first, it was the colors that appealed to me, being very different to his blue/yellow general scheme. And when you see it in real life, you can't really see all of the painting at once so i didn't notice the dead horse. All I saw, was some blurry lines and funky figurates. but when I saw the little flies we can see right above the corpse in the middle left, that's when it hit me that it wasn't just some shapes. Honestly, I think this process of realising what was made me like this painting even more. Along with the title "Very Happy Horse", all i could say was "wow".
