拍品資料及來源

Francesc Queralt first met Joan Miró in Montroig in the mid-1960s when he became the artist's tailor. Miró remained friends with the family for the rest of his life and they have carefully conserved over 20 years of correspondence with the artist. A translation of Miró's dedication on the present work reads To Francesc Queralt, Who creates such purity with the shapes of his textiles, Miró.

The authenticity of this work has been confirmed by ADOM.
