About the Item

Image dimensions: 33.5 x 47.5 cm. Le Lézard aux Plumes d'Or is a beautiful color lithograph on tissue paper, realized in 1971 by the Spanish Surrealist artist, Joan Mirò (Montroing 1893 - Mallorca 1983) for the homonymous print suite. This is the plate number 9, unsigned and unnumbered. In fact our specimen is one of 195 unsigned impressions. A wonderful Surrealist composition in the Miro's style and in perfect conditions, including a white cardboard passepartout, cm 49 x 0.5 x 63.7 Reference: Mourlot 806 Illustration is a fundamental aspect of Miró's creative path, and his deep interest in literature has led him to frequent and collaborate with writers and poets of the Surrealist circle, including Guillaume Apollinaire, Stéphane Mallarmé, and Antonin Artaud. Le lézard aux plumes d'or is an original poem by Miró, conceived on the harmonious alternation of verses and colorful images that underlie the magical relationship between man and nature. A first series of 18 lithographed plates dates back to 1967, where the line is lighter and the colors are clear and bright. Later, the Catalan artist and the publisher Louis Broder realized the alteration of colors, caused by a defect in the paper factory, forcing them to abandon the run to make new compositions on Rives paper and mother-of-pearl Japan paper, appearing in 1971 with the same title. Since 1960, the works of the Catalan artist have been animated with surreal creatures that float in space, bathing in shining light. The work reproduces the poem in lithographic printing entirely, and includes 15 colored lithographs and 23 pages of text that reproduce the handwriting of Miró: this process maintains a perfect balance between the force of graphism and the visual effect of images, built with thick contour lines. At the end of 1971, the poem for images was presented at the Berggruen Gallery in Paris and at the Galerie Pierre in Stockholm.
