When Ava Gardner 'enjoyed it' in Torremolinos

Maybe what summer between Federico García Lorca and Salvador Dalí would define as reducing one of the most beautiful and enigmatic sentimental stories of the last decades between two great geniuses to the dumbest expression. But the truth is that in Cadaqués , the small coastal municipality of Catalonia, the easternmost of the community and that barely had 1,500 inhabitants in the 20s, the poet and the painter enjoyed each other without any complex.

In that house, Dalí had spent the summers of his childhood , with his father, his sister, Anna María, and his mother, Felipa. When she died, the father married his sister-in-law and sister of the deceased, Caterina, who also traveled to the municipality of Alto Ampurdán in the hot months with his new family . The image above is a photo taken precisely in Cadaqués, by Anna María, in the summer of 1927, the second occasion in Dalí invited his friend Federiquito , as he called him, to his summer home.

"Federico, as everyone knows, was very much in love with me, and tried to hit me in the ass twice , but since I'm not a fag and it hurt me badly, I canceled it right away and he stayed in a purely thing Platonic and in admiration, "Dalí would tell his friend and writer Max Aub years later. After this episode, they distanced themselves . Although they would return to their platonic love.
