First edition of this extravagant, lavishly illustrated cookbook created by Dalà in honor of his wife Gala. Quarto, original color-printed pictorial cloth, original decorative stiff paper dust jacket, illustrated throughout. Fine in a very good dust jacket. Translated by Captain J. Peter Moore. âWhen six years old I wanted to be a cook.â At age 68, Dalà fulfilled that ambition in this book. His careful selection of menus and recipes, âwith its precepts and its illustrations, is uniquely devoted to the pleasures of Taste. Donât look for dietetic formulas here. We intend to ignore those charts and tables in which chemistry takes the place of gastronomy. If you are a disciple of one of those calorie-counters who turn the joys of eating into a form of punishment, close this book at once; it is too lively, too aggressive and far too impertinent for you.â With color plates and in-text photographs and illustrations on nearly every one of the 322 pages. The colophon reads, âThe divine Salvador Domenech Philippe Hyacinthe Dalà conceived and materialized this work dedicated to Gala. All the recipes in this cook book, never before published, have been elaborated with great precision by a âchefâ wishing to remain in the most secret anonymity.â Gala was DalÃâs wife and muse.

Dali (illustrator). 1st Edition. Dali. 1st Edition. First edition, hardcover in cloth with Dali painting (8 3/4 x 12 1/4", 22.5 x 31 cm) in a gold gilt dust jacket, 322pp, printed, by Draeger Frères, and bound in France. Dali's satirical and irreverent lampooning of haute cuisine dedicated and inspired by his wife, Gala, and translated into English by Captain J. Peter Moore from recipes created in the French restaurants, Lasserre, Maxim's, La Tour d'Argent, and Le Buffet de la Gare de Lyon. This book is copiously populated with drawings, photos and colour reproductions from Dali's unique imagination. The dust jacket shows some wear and inevitable scratches on the gilt surface with slight wear on the cloth cover. A celebration of Dali's boundless, offbeat humour. This book is in very good condition. A superb example from perhaps the greatest artist of this past century - we know he would agree.

Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ENGLISH, WITH MAGNIFICENT PRESENTATION INSCRIPTIONS, DRAWINGS, AND "PAPER SCULPTURE" BY DALI. On the inscription and drawings: Dali lavishly decorated the endpapers of this copy, writing in thick black marker (and taking up over half the page): "Pour MR Riskin / Hommage / Dali." Beneath his inscription, he dated it (1974) and drew what looks to be a large version of one of his spinning men. Dali scraped the paper at the base of one of the figure's arms to create something resembling a hand. On the facing page, Dali created something even more unusual: He drew a bug, but molded and scraped the paper to create a three-dimensional exoskeleton for the creature. Finally, on the page facing the title page, Dali added another inscription: "with apologies for the translation / Dali / 1974". The book: "Les Diners de Gala, the opulent cookbook that [Dali] conceived and illustrated, sets out a surrealist gastro-aesthetics that is at once visceral and ascetic, Dionysian and Catholic. [It] showcases Dali's ornamentation of menus from such legendary restaurants as Maxim's and La Tour d'Argent and features the recipes of their chefs. Dali stages himself within the sumptuous culinary mise-en-scene. Les Diners de Gala moves between 'sado-masochistic pleasure', 'acute sybaritism', Rabelaisian scatology, religious ecstasy, and anaesthetic asceticism." (Richard Gough, On Cooking). With 136 recipes in 12 categories: exotic dishes; eggs & sea food; first course; meats; snails & frogs; fish & shell fish; game & poultry; pork; vegetables; aphrodisiacs; desserts; hors-d' oeuvre. The book is stunningly illustrated throughout with surrealistic full-color images of food, figures, and wild scenes sprung from Dali's imagination. Provenance: The recipient, Martin Riskin, was an influential member of the New York art scene, serving as the banquet director at the St. Regis Hotel during the 1960s and '70s (an appropriate association for this book), where he befriended Salvador Dalí and also held hospitality positions at The Plaza, The Pierre and The Waldorf-Astoria. He was culturally diverse, serving as a founder of the New York Youth Symphony, the Puccini Foundation and the World of Musicians, and as a board member of the American Symphony Orchestra. Through his activity in contemporary art circles he was friends with Miró and Chagall (among others) as well as Dalí. Translated by Captain J. Peter Moore. New York: Felicie, 1973.
