Joan Miró — Le Jardin De Mousse
Joan Miró

Le Jardin De Mousse

1968

This 1968 aquatint exemplifies Miró's late-period exploration of texture through the innovative use of carborundum, which creates rich, granular surfaces that complement his signature biomorphic forms. The work demonstrates the artist's continued fascination with natural themes, as suggested by the title's reference to a moss garden.
