The lithograph is in very good condition. There are a few scrapes on the four corners of the frame (shown in the photographs) which can be easily touched up. This frame and mat truly bring out the beauty of this piece. Free shipping. Published by Mourlot, Paris. This original lithograph is the artist's proof (e.a.) created and pencil signed in the lower right corner by the artist (not the common plate signed print). The "e.a" marking on a print stands for “ épreuve d’artiste ,” meaning Artist’s Proof in French. A pencil signed artist's proof is generally 20% to 50% higher in value than a pencil signed limited edition, due to its rarity, and considerably more valuable than a limited edition signed in the plate.

Miró used color and form in a symbolic manner, developing intricate compositions and a wandering linear style that combined abstract elements with recurring motifs such as birds, eyes, and the moon. During his lifetime, Miró received the Grand Prize for Graphic Work at the 1954 Venice Biennale, exhibited at the first Documenta exhibition in 1955, and enjoyed multiple high-profile retrospectives. Today, Miró’s work—which has sold for eight figures at auction—can be found in the permanent collections of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Museum of Modern Art, among other institutions. His public sculptures and murals are installed in cities around the world, including Milan, Paris, and Barcelona.
