A FINE COMPLETE SET, WITH 36 MIR
Ó LITHOGRAPHS

Miró, Joan.   Lithographe I-VI

"The best way to approach a work by Miró: Empty yourself of preconceptions, look at it without any reservations, and bathe your eyes in it as in water that can wash away the dust that accumulates around so many masterpieces. Thanks to such rediscovered candor, the doors of poetry in us will be opened wide." -Michel Leiris, 1947.

FIRST EDITIONS in six volumes of the complete catalog raisonné (French-language issue), complete with 36 original Miró lithographs, covering Miró's work from 1930-1981. Fine copies.
