Joan Miro (1893-1983) - Sculptures

Joan Miró — “Esculturas”, 1974
Original color lithograph by Joan Miró, titled “Esculturas”, created in 1974. This is a plate-signed example, produced as an original lithograph in eight colors, reflecting the mature, highly expressive visual language of the artist.
The work stands out for its remarkable chromatic strength and compositional energy. Intense reds, deep blues, luminous yellows, greens and blacks interact within a dynamic visual structure full of movement, rhythm and poetic tension. The organic forms, floating signs and powerful graphic gestures belong unmistakably to Miró’s symbolic universe, where image, writing and imagined sculpture seem to merge into a single visual language.
In “Esculturas”, Miró creates a composition of exceptional visual presence. The figures appear to emerge from the surface with a primitive, playful and almost sculptural energy. The work conveys a strong sense of volume and physicality, as if the signs were not merely printed on paper but suspended in space. This sculptural quality gives the piece both its title and its distinctive character.
This example belongs to the 1974 edition and is signed in the plate, meaning that the artist’s signature is incorporated into the lithographic matrix itself. This is part of the nature of the edition and preserves the artist’s graphic imprint within the final composition. The work is printed on quality paper and retains a strong, clean and vibrant visual presence.
The piece is offered framed with a passe-partout and a 24k gold leaf frame, a refined and elegant presentation that enhances the chromatic intensity of the lithograph and allows it to be displayed immediately. The gold leaf frame adds depth, warmth and luminosity, creating a striking contrast with the radical modernity of Miró’s artistic language.
The work is in perfect condition, with no relevant visible damage, preserving a clean, bright and balanced reading of the image. Its excellent state of conservation, together with the quality of the printing, the vividness of the colors and the refined 24k gold leaf framing, make it a particularly attractive piece for collectors of Joan Miró’s graphic work.
Overall, “Esculturas” captures many of the essential qualities of Miró’s universe: formal freedom, color, spontaneity, symbolism and the artist’s unique ability to transform apparently simple signs into a deeply poetic composition. It is a visually powerful and highly decorative work, representative of Miró’s mature period and especially suited for interiors where presence, character and artistic significance are desired.
