A single page print from the 1965 edition of Derriere Le Miroir #151-152 by Joan Miro, limited edition of 150 copies and published by Maeght Éditeur in Paris. Derrière Le Miroir was a publication that ran from 1946 to 1982, featuring prints by the era’s most celebrated Modernists. Produced by Galerie Maeght in Paris, the publication was dedicated to making art widely accessible at a time when many exiled artists and creative thinkers had just returned to France at the end of World War II. Joan Miró (1893-1983) was a Spanish surrealist artist known for his distinctive style combining elements of abstraction, surrealism, and Catalan folk art. He used vivid colors, playful shapes, and symbols to explore themes of dreams, the subconscious, and the imagination. Miró's work includes paintings, sculptures, and ceramics, and he is widely regarded as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. His approach to art often defied traditional boundaries, making him a central figure in the development of modern art.
