This painting is Salvador Dali's "The Persistence of Memory", created in 1931. The painting shows a distorted and deformed clock, which is suspended in the air, with some of the clock dials melted into pieces. The background is a beach scene at sunset, with rocky cliffs in the distance. The sky exhibits a gradient from orange yellow to blue, which contrasts sharply with the foreground. The overall picture gives a dreamlike illusion, and the shape and position of the clock appear unreal.
