I think that's definitely that guy who painted the melting clocks painting.. ... .DAM his name's slipped my mind.

Got it, Salvador Dali. That looks like one of his works.

It is one of his works. It's called "Swans."

No.

But I did actually get the title partially wrong. It's "Swans Reflecting Elephants."

This is definitely my favorite from Dali, but as far as surrealism is concerned, Dali is my least favorite. I prefer M.C. Escher and Saul Steinberg.

Incidentally, that's my least favorite Dali. He's pretty good, but he's not one of the best surrealists. I'm not sure whether Escher is considered surrealist or not, but he's one of my favorite artists.
