The description is a gem.

The title and the content of the work suggest a sort of self-parody, which makes sense considering the late period in Dali’s life during which the painting created.


Dali generally worked in oil, Hitler Masturbating is a watercolor.


The painting depicts exactly what the title suggests; the dictator, in full Nazi uniform, sits in an armchair, his back to the viewer amidst a barren snowscape. His chair appears to morph into a group of horses, the hooves of which still bear resemblance to the chair.


Given Dali’s sense of humor, however, the painting is more likely a dirty joke on Dali’s part. As Hitler masturbates, he looks upon a barren wasteland, an emptiness that resembles the destruction of Europe by his own hand.

That last bits great. Dali just thought it would be funny to paint der FΓΌrher crankin the old hog. Nothing less nothing more.
