Description
- Joan Miró
- COMPOSITION
- signed Miró and abundantly inscribed (towards lower left)
- wax crayon on paper
- 38 by 32cm., 14 7/8 by 12 5/8 in.
Condition
Executed on cream Japan paper, not laid down, attached to the overmount along the top edge. There are two 2 by 1cm. areas of glue residue to the upper 2 corners, possibly caused by previous mounting. There is a flattened crease running vertically down the right of the sheet as well as several creases, mostly to the righthand side, which appear inherent to the artist's choice of support. Apart from some light studio dirt, this work is in good condition.
Colours: The papertone is warmer and the black crayon is stronger in the original.
