Joan Miro (1893-1983)-Lithographs. Volume II. 1975. Maeght 1049

Attention! Start session for bidding for this lot.


Lithograph, 1975. Signed in pencil by the artist and annotated _XX/LXXX. Printer: Mourlot (Paris). Catalogue: [Maeght 1049]. 45.00 cm x 37.00 cm, 17.72 in x 14.57 in (paper), 31.00 cm x 25.00 cm, 12.2 in x 9.84 in (image). This lithograph is part of a series of similar lithographs that Joan Miró created in 1975 and which were published by the Parisian studio Mourlot. This Artwork reveals a true delicacy on Miró's part. Here the artist is more restrained in his usual symbolic repertoire. Hollow black lines and bold blocks of color trace slender, conical forms. The fineness of the pencil grain is striking. With utter simplicity, Miró composes an architecture of multiple curves. This composition takes center stage on the panel, defining the void around it. Between the abstract and the figurative, we discern the silhouette of an animal, which the artist is careful not to clearly identify. This freedom of interpretation leads us to recognize a donkey, one of Miró's favorite animals. With its head bowed, it appears sometimes sad, sometimes dreamy.
