Joan Miró – Color Lithograph from Cahiers d’Art, 1960s
Abstract Modernist Composition – Unsigned Printer’s Proof
A lithograph by Joan Miró (1893–1983), created for the iconic Parisian art journal Cahiers d’Art during the 1960s. This work exemplifies Miró’s signature visual language, playful yet profound, where celestial forms, biomorphic shapes, and rhythmic lines converge in a dreamlike space.
Key Details:
- Medium: Original color lithograph on archival paper
- Provenance: Published by Cahiers d’Art as part of their avant-garde collaborations
- Condition: Good overall; minor age related foxing and slight marginal tears along the edges of the cover (unobtrusive, does not affect image). The top right corner of the book has a crease that is present through most of the book. Please refer to the pictures for details.
- Attributes: Unsigned and unnumbered.
Artistic Significance:
Though Miró resisted formal Surrealist affiliation, André Breton hailed him as "the most Surrealist of us all." His process embraced subconscious spontaneity, often incorporating fragmented imagery from industrial catalogues, transformed into bold silhouettes punctuated by bursts of red, black, and white. This lithograph captures his unique alchemy of childlike wonder and sophisticated abstraction.

9.6" W × 12.4" H × 0.4" D (24.5 × 31.5 × 1 cm)
