Some of the greatest intellectual and artistic creations through the ages have been the product of a genius working in solitude. Others are the result of the coming together of several people and an idea in a chemical reaction resulting in a totally new compound. That is the process that gives us the Biblia Sacra.In 1963, Salvador Dalí—an internationally known artist and favorite of both the avant-garde art world and the media—turned his attention and energies to the endlessly rich subject matter offered by the Holy Bible (especially the Old Testament). The catalyst that permitted the artistic genius Dalí and The Book to create one hundred and five stunning and compelling images was Giuseppe Albaretto.Italian Doctors Giuseppe and Mara Albaretto were vacationing with their young daughter Christiana in Llansa, just around the corner from the Dalí home at Cadaques on Spain’s Costa Brava in 1956, when they were taken to the artist’s home by art critic Rafael Santos Torroela. The visitors from Turin bought a drawing—the first of well over three hundred Dalí original artworks that now make up The Albaretto Collection.
