In early 1993, while living in Madrid, I visited the then-brand-new Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza across from the Prado. The Spanish government acquired this excellent collection from Swiss industrialist Baron Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza (I think he married a Spanish lady). Anyway, I bought a print of an odd Salvador Dali painting. Somewhere along the way I lost it in a move. This 1944 painting is called SueƱo causado por el vuelo de una abeja alrededor de una granada un segundo antes de despertar (in English: Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee around a Pomegranate One Second Before Waking Up):
