The Swan
Based on the original:Scenery for Bacchanale (1939) During his
years in America Dalí did not limit his activities solely to painting.
He designed advertisements, wrote an autobiography, worked
on cinema and designed for theatre and ballet productions. His
first design for the ballet was Bachannale (originally named in
German "Venusberg"), for which he also wrote the scenario and
designed the costumes. It was a Metropolitan Opera production,
choreographed by Leonide Massine for the Ballet Russe de
Monte Carlo. The ballet was set to the music of Richard
Wagner, whose insane patron, king Ludwig II, was portrayed in
the scenario.

The Tiger
Based on the painting:Dream caused by the flight of a bee
(1944) The full title "One second before awakening from a
dream caused by the flight of a bee around a pomegranate"
explains how Dalí was inspired by a dream that Gala reported to
him. He saw the dream as an illustration of Freud's theory that
dreams could be triggered by external stimuli. Gala, asleep and
floating, feels the threat of the bee-sting, symbolised by the rifle
with bayonet. The pomegranate, that probably attracted the bee,
can be seen in the foreground and, in a huge version, on the left
of the painting. It seems to be the source of the enormous fish
with a snarling tiger leaping out of its mouth. In the background
the elephant can be seen on long thin legs defying the laws of
gravity, a recurring theme in Dalí's works.
