Maybe it's a parody of her with a designer handbag of today?Claude Monet ~ Woman with a Parasol...I saw this in a museum.
It was HUGE and every stroke was beautiful. I was totally mesmerized by it.
But I don't remember that purse. That can't be. I think someone added that.
In fact the whole thing is not right. The strokes aren't there and the boy
is missing from the background and it's not the same quality overall...grrr

Yes, he was. He was called "his own forger"...lol.Love Dali. He was quite the character!
Story goes, toward the end of his life he started signing blank prints so as not to have to spend the time at the printing press I guess. It is said that about 1/2 of all valuable artwork of famous artists on the market today are forgeries...talk about talented artists, even the experts can't tell.
Did you ever study the fruit & stuff in the old oil paintings to see how much different it may or may not be from the fruit. veggies and flowers today?

You are welcome Rad. Got a gorgeously realistic fruit painting by a renegade Spanish artist I'm trying to determine the value of now. Of course you also can't really look at fruit from artists of the "impressionistic movement" as that is what the art genre is about - "movement"...lol.No, it never occurred to me. But I will be looking now.
Thanks, Lib!
