In this 'hand-painted dream photograph' — as Dalí generally called his paintings
— we find a seascape of distant horizons and calm waters, perhaps Port Lligat,
amidst which Gala, once again, is the subject of the scene. Next to the naked
body of the sleeping woman, which levitates above a flat rock that floats above
the sea, Dalí depicts two suspended droplets of water and a pomegranate, a
Christian symbol of fertility and resurrection. - art-Dali.com

Renoir first painted Jeanne Samary in early 1877, producing two oil portraits
that show her bust-length against a background of flickering, multi-colored
brushstrokes. The same year, he also made a pastel portrait of the actress
and portrayed her on a pair of plaster medallions. In the earlier of the two oil
portraits, Samary is dressed simply in a dark blue dress with a white collar
buttoned to the neck; the palette of the painting is somber, and Samary's
expression is reticent. - art-Renoir.com
