Emissa Voce Magna Expiravit Mark 15 37 1967 by Salvador Dali — Fine Art

Emissa Voce Magna Expiravit Mark 15 37 1967 by Salvador Dali turns the Latin words into a painted mark on a blank ground. The letters run in a single line, heavy and uneven, with a faint wash behind them. You see the title as a shape before you read the meaning.

This fine art print sits in a frame with a back panel and arrives assembled when you choose the ready to hang option. The matte paper holds the dark letters without shine, so the long line stays clear under a lamp.

On a hallway wall the line reads from the landing as one dark stroke. From the kitchen door you notice the uneven edges of each letter and the plain ground behind them.
