Surrealist onanism

Salvador Dalí's The Great Masturbator is called a "surreal depiction of Dalí's personal obsession with sex."
Just as the Greeks were upset about losing their Parthenon marbles to Britain, so the separatist Catalan Republican Left party is claiming that The Great Masturbator should never have left Dalí's home town, Figueras, in Catalonia, for the walls of the Reina Sofia museum.

What’s this? A story about Dali’s “The Great Masturbator” and you don’t have a picture? Then again knowing Dali, I’m not so sure I want to see…

While I do mildly like Dali I would’ve thought it woman craling out of a potato skin. But it has been years and years since I was reading, viewing art.
