The Transformed Dream
'The Transformed Dream is an oil on canvas painting by the Italian metaphysical painter Giorgio [de Chirico], from 1913. It is held at the Saint [Louis Art Museum], in St. Louis.
This work contains the classic Chirico's images of an empty urban scene at late evening with a ghostly train on the horizon. In this case in the foreground is an arrangement of a sort of still life with bananas, pineapples and, at the left, a sculpture of the head of the Roman god Jupiter.
