The image being Dali´s famous 1936 painting Soft Construction with Boiled Beans (Premonition of Civil War). Dali annotates to the lower white border of the image the painting´s title in French, with several French-writing mistakes, and slightly different to the usual name of it `''Estructure Molle, avec des aricots bouillis'' 1936´, the oil being known as ''Construction Molle aux Haricots bouillis''. Also bearing three crossed words in his hand. To the verso, the photographer ink stamp of ''Photographie André Caillet'' of Paris. Three extremely small stains to the bottom white border, otherwise VG £2000-3000 Soft Construction with Boiled Beans (Premonition of Civil War) (1936) is an oil on canvas by Salvador Dali, representing the horrors of the Spanish Civil War. The painting is located in the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Dali painted it six months before the conflict began. He subsequently claimed that he was aware the war was going to occur long before it began, and cited his work as evidence of ''the prophetic power of his subconscious mind.''
