In 1925 Salvador Dalí painted two portraits of his sister Anna Maria, which have undoubtedly passed into the history of art. One is the "Girl at the window" and the other is this "Seated Girl" who served as the cover for the painter's first exhibition at the Dalmau Galleries in Barcelona. If Gala was Dalí's great muse from 1929 on, the first undisputed female protagonist of his paintings is Anna Maria Dalí.
