What is the title of Dalí's 1954 painting of a hypercube crucifixion?

The title of Dalí’s 1954 hypercube crucifixion painting is Crucifixion (Corpus Hypercubus).

The oil painting shows Christ suspended before an unfolded net of a tesseract, a four-dimensional geometric figure also called a hypercube. Dalí transformed the conventional cross into this mathematical form, making the painting both a Christian image and a meditation on dimensions beyond ordinary human perception. The work is now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

The painting belongs to Dalí’s later period, when his interest in traditional Surrealism was increasingly joined by Catholic imagery, mathematics, physics, and classical technique. He called this synthesis “nuclear mysticism,” a concept shaped in part by the scientific upheavals of the atomic age. The dramatic lighting and drapery recall older European painting, while Christ’s floating body and the geometric cross create an unmistakably modern vision.

A common mix-up is Christ of Saint John of the Cross, another famous Dalí crucifixion painting. That 1951 work presents Christ from an unusual overhead viewpoint; Corpus Hypercubus is the one defined by the tesseract-shaped cross. Gala appears below Christ as Mary Magdalene, with the landscape evoking Dalí’s Catalan surroundings.
