Salvador Dali

"Soldier Take Warning"  
http://www.chilloutpoint.com/art_and_design/illusions-through-the-paintings-of-salvador-dali.html
The illuminating green colors on this painting are a call to warning when a soldier glances over his shoulder to view two girls being shown a green light on top with Black Death crows flying above them. At the second look the two young adults form a shape of a skull and make more sense of the fear in the soldier’s eyes. The leggings are white like teeth for the skull’s teeth and the heads are the eyes. Nothing brings more symbolism to finding freedom than the ocean which to my perspective, the soldier wishes to liberate himself from the war he is fighting, he may feel trapped.
