About the Item

This exquisite lithograph and pochoir after Joan Miro (1893–1983), titled Le reveil (The Awakening), from the album Miro 1959–1960 (Miro 1959–1960), originates from the 1961 edition published by Pierre Matisse Gallery, New York, rendered by Daniel Jacomet, Paris, and printed by Daniel Jacomet et Cie, Paris, 1961. Le reveil captures Miro’s fascination with the poetic rhythm of color and form, evoking the moment of awakening as an interplay of light, motion, and imagination. Through an abstract vocabulary of floating shapes and lyrical gestures, the artist translates the energy of rebirth into a symphony of visual harmony and emotional depth. Executed as a lithograph and pochoir on velin paper, this work measures 11.5 x 18.48 inches, with centerfold as issued. Signed in the plate and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of Daniel Jacomet et Cie, Paris, one of France’s foremost studios specializing in pochoir and fine art printmaking.

This album was made and presented for the exhibition of the artist's works at the Gallery Pierre Matisse, New York, October 31 - November 25, 1961. About the Publication: Miro 1959–1960 (Miro 1959–1960), published in 1961 by Pierre Matisse Gallery, New York, with pochoirs rendered by Daniel Jacomet, Paris, accompanied the landmark exhibition of Miro’s paintings and graphic works held at the Pierre Matisse Gallery from October 31 to November 25, 1961. The album captures the spirit of Miro’s late 1950s and early 1960s output—a period characterized by liberated brushwork, symbolic abstraction, and radiant chromatic experimentation. Printed by Daniel Jacomet et Cie, Paris, in collaboration with Fernand Mourlot for the original lithographs, the volume reflects the exceptional precision and artistry of French printmaking at its height. Designed to evoke the immediacy of Miro’s painted surfaces, the pochoirs and lithographs maintain a tactile richness and vibrancy that honor the original works. This publication stands among Miro’s most celebrated printed albums, marking a pivotal moment in his continued dialogue between materiality, imagination, and cosmic lyricism. About the Artist: Joan Miro (1893–1983) was a Catalan painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist whose visionary imagination and lyrical abstraction made him one of the most influential and beloved artists of the 20th century. Born in Barcelona, Miro drew inspiration from Catalan folk art, Romanesque frescoes, and the luminous landscapes of Mont-roig del Camp, developing a deep connection to nature that infused his work with vitality and symbolism. After formal training at the Escola d'Art in Barcelona, he absorbed the lessons of Post-Impressionism and Cubism before moving to Paris in the early 1920s, where he became a leading figure in the Surrealist movement. There, Miro forged a personal visual language of biomorphic shapes, floating symbols, and radiant color harmonies that reflected both spontaneity and spiritual depth. In creative dialogue with peers such as Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, he helped revolutionize modern art by dissolving the boundaries between abstraction and dream imagery. Miro's inventive approach extended far beyond painting, embracing sculpture, ceramics, and monumental public commissions that redefined how art could interact with space and emotion. His expressive freedom and gestural abstraction profoundly influenced later artists including Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, Alexander Calder, Jean Dubuffet, Antoni Tapies, and Joan Mitchell, inspiring generations who sought to merge instinct, color, and imagination. Today, Miro's work remains a cornerstone of modernism, prized by collectors and celebrated in major museums worldwide. His highest auction record was achieved by Peinture (Etoile Bleue) (1927), which sold for 23,561,250 GBP (approximately 37 million USD) at Sotheby's, London, on June 19, 2012.
