Desoxyribonucleic Acid Arabs, circa 1963

Salvador Dalí’s “Desoxyribonucleic Acid Arabs,” created circa 1963, is a striking homage to Crick and Watson's discovery of DNA. This Symbolism landscape depicts Galà Dalí amidst a dreamlike desert scene populated by riflemen arranged in cubes of death—a visual representation of genetic persistence and the divine connection symbolized by the double helix structure.
