“At the age of six I wanted to be a cook. At seven I wanted to be Napoleon. And my ambition has been growing steadily ever since.” — Salvador Dalí
Today, we celebrate the birth of a man whose work exposed the surreal and extraordinary. Born #OnThisDay in 1904 Figueres, Spain, Salvador Dalí became the face of Surrealism, challenging the world to look into the depths of the subconscious.
While he is most famous for his melting clocks and surreal dreamscapes, Dalí’s legacy spans far beyond the canvas. He explored film, sculpture, fashion and even photography—constantly blurring the lines between fine art and pop culture.

dalí’s sweetest design 👁️ 🍭✨
Did you know Salvador Dalí designed the logo for the candy brand, @chupachupsus ?
In true Dalí fashion, he believed a logo should be as unforgettable as the object itself. In 1969, he sketched the bold, daisy-like design that is still seen on every Chupa Chups lollipop today, placing it on top of the wrapper instead of the side so it would always be visible and never distorted. A small design choice with a surreal legacy. 🌼
What’s your go-to flavor?
