The contemporary subject, strong colour and lively brushwork
reflect Georges Seurat's awareness of Impressionism. This is
one of thirteen sketches, in addition to ten drawings, Seurat
made while working up his monumental finished composition of
'The Bathers, Asnières' - ArtsViewer.com

As Dawn Ades wrote, 'The soft watches are an unconscious symbol
of the relativity of space and time, a Surrealist meditation on the
collapse of our notions of a fixed cosmic order'. This interpretation
suggests that Salvador Dalí was incorporating an understanding of
the world introduced by Albert Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity.
