Surrealist Dali (8)
I believe the answer is:
salvador
'surrealist dali' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for salvador that I've seen before include "El ---; --- Dali" , "Brazilian cty" , "... Dali, Spanish surrealist painter" , "- Dali, twentieth century Spanish artist" .)
