    If I'm not mistaken, isn't this created from a Salvador Dali painting?

    Bought time Askari posted a picture of himself.

    I thought he'd be younger looking.

    Cacheman, that could very well be something from a Dali painting. What a shame that he never got around to make coins or medals. THAT would have been something!

    the medal is dated 1936. Isn't that before most of Dali's works?

    This forum is amazing! Do you realize we just jumped from the Art Noveau era to the Italian Renaissance, then back to Surrealism all in one thread? Our elementary school art teachers would be proud!

    Elementary school teachers? Man, they must teach some heavy stuff in Livonia.
