The Fall of Lancelot considers the vulnerability beneath the heroic ideal, transforming a legendary knight’s reversal into a scene of drama and introspection. Drypoint is especially effective for this subject: its fine, expressive line brings immediacy to the moment while preserving the ambiguity central to Dalí’s visual language. Created in 1975, this impression is numbered 89/249 and hand signed by the artist. The sheet measures 18.9 x 13.8 inches (48 x 35 cm), and the framed dimensions are 24.4 x 20.5 inches (62 x 52 cm). It was published by Oeuvres Graphiques Contemporaines/Pamela Verlag, Paris, and printed by Atelier Viglino/Atelier Taille Douce, Paris. The work is listed as Field 75-9 E and Michler/Löpsinger 782. Preserved in excellent condition, it presents a compelling union of literary tragedy, technical assurance, and Dalí’s mature graphic style.
