PARADISE 31
Dali Authentic Woodblock
I invite you to notice that Daliartmart offers the only Dali prints on EBAY that can be registered In the Salvador Dali Archives!
In fact no one else offers individually authenticated Dali prints.
That’s right individually authenticated!
Most others offer no real proof of authenticity; or at best, a copied Letter of Authentication. Even this was for a complete set of prints and not for an individual print. A letter can always be copied over and over again; but if you stop and think about it, a copied letter does not make a print authentic or guarantee authenticity! You may even get a Certificate of Authenticity (C.O.A.) from the art gallery that is selling the print. Remember though that they are in the business of selling art; so no matter what they may tell you, they are not unbiased authorities on authenticating the art!
You can rest assured that this Divine Comedy Woodblock Engraving is authentic. I am proud to say that the late world-renowned Dali expert, Mr. Albert Field, personally authenticated this piece! Furthermore, Mr. Field is the only person Dali authorized to Archive and Authenticate his work. Also, Mr. Field included which edition of the Divine Comedy they are from, permanently stamped on the back in archival ink. Yes, you will get a copy of the Letter of Authentication for the complete suite of the Divine Comedy! This Letter is different in that it refers to the fact that each print is authentic; and that each print has been stamped on the back with archival ink and signed by Mr. Albert Field, himself; showing proof that Mr. Field personally examined and certified the print to be authentic. Archives registration number is also stamped on the back in archival Ink.
Ok, I know that there are some Doubting Thomas's that might ask how do I know for sure that Mr. Field really signed the back of these prints? Well, get ready for the proof beyond a shadow of doubt, because with this bit of proof, all your fears and doubts will be resolved. I personally visited the Archives in New York and took photographs of Mr. Field during the authenticating and signing process. The detail of the photos I took is so sharp that his hand is caught in mid stroke of signing! Believe me, there is no doubt who signed and authenticated this print-other than the late world-renowned Dali expert, Mr. Albert Field. With this proof and Mr. Fields assurance you can buy it now with complete confidence.
You will receive 2 photos of Mr. Field taken during the signing, plus a Photo CD with about 20 more photographs of Mr. Field, also taken during the signing. As you allow yourself to realize just how rare and collectable this Divine Comedy Woodblock print really is, you may realize that now is the best time to secure this rare Dali--before someone else does! Once in the hands of a collector, it may be 20 years or more before this print is once again available. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a Dali that can be registered in the Salvador Dali Archives and to have your name registered in the Archives as the owner of this Original Woodblock Engraving. Think about it--your name registered in the Archives as the owner of this original woodblock from the Divine Comedy by Dali, certified by the late Mr. Albert Field. With the passing of Mr. Field, there will be only two suites of Divine Comedy ever authenticated with the numbers of the edition they are from.
Go ahead contact other Art Dealers. Ask for Dali prints authenticated by Mr. Albert Field and registerable in The Salvador Dali Archives. Then listen to all the double speak about how theirs are rarer or it’s a waste of money and the list goes on and on. The fact is they just don’t have any or just maybe their prints wouldn’t qualify. With the passing of Mr. Field you can still get any Dali work of art authenticated by Mr. Frank Hunter of The Salvador Dali Archives. It just doesn’t make sense to have anyone else authenticate your Dali because they can’t get you and your print registered into The Salvador Dali Archives. What makes these prints so extra special is the fact that Mr. Field himself did the authentication plus he even certified which Suite of the Divine Comedy they are from and print registration into The Salvador Dali Archives.
Why always have a question in the back of your mind is it or isn’t authentic. If you’re going to put out good money it is better to KNOW FOR SURE. That is where you get real pride of ownership and satisfaction. It may cost a little more but the true knowing that you have a Field authenticated Dali and that you and your print are registered in The Salvador Dali Archives is priceless.
You can NOW Bid knowing the real satisfaction you will receive by winning this auction. Because when there gone there gone.
