Collectors and friends
Reynolds and Eleanor Morse bought their first Dalí painting a year after their marriage in 1942 and knew the artist for forty years, building a comprehensive collection of his work.
Large-scale masterworks
The museum holds 96 oil paintings, more than 100 watercolours and drawings and some 1,300 prints, photographs, sculptures and objects, among them large canvases such as The Hallucinogenic Toreador and The Discovery of America by Christopher Columbus.
Second only to Figueres
Apart from the Dalí Theatre-Museum that the artist created in his home town of Figueres, in Spain, the museum in St. Petersburg has the world’s largest collection of his works. Displays of the permanent collection change from time to time, alongside temporary exhibitions.
