What symbols did Miró use in his paintings?
Joan Miró used a variety of symbols in his paintings, prints, ceramics, sculptures, metal engravings and murals. Some of the motifs that the Catalan modernist most frequently repeated include hair, eyes, feet, stars and planets. Female and avian forms, along with bright colors and the theme of Catalan pride, are also recurring elements in his work. Shop a range of Joan Miró from some of the world's top galleries on 1stDibs.
