Joan Miró — Passage De L'égyptienne: Plate Iiiii (dupin 1188)
Joan Miró

Passage De L'égyptienne: Plate Iiiii (dupin 1188)

A vibrant and enigmatic composition, this etching and aquatint showcases Miró's signature visual language of biomorphic forms, bold lines, and vivid color, rendered with remarkable depth through the aquatint process. Printed in 1985 as a rare proof aside from the edition of 25 on luxurious japon nacré paper, this work represents one of the final chapters of the artist's prolific printmaking career. Published by RLD, Paris, and printed by Morsang, this exceptional impression bears Miró's pencil signature, underscoring its authenticity and distinction within the broader numbered edition of 125.
