rif. 1152821976 . Etching and aquatint with carborundum in colours 1976 on Arches paper signed in pencil and numbered 40 from the edition of 50 there were also 12 Artist's Proofs printed by Morsang Paris published by Maeght Paris with full margins sheet: 1378 x 956 mm. 54 ½ x 38 in. Created in 1976 this dynamic image is part of a series of prints that Miró created in collaboration with printmaker Robert Dutrou using Henri Goetz's innovative carborundum printmaking technique. The title of the work translates as 'The Red Egret' and depicts the abstracted form of a bird in bold contrasting colours. The deep blues and blacks of the lower half of the composition are balanced by the empty negative space towards the top creating an intriguing visual tension. The sweeping curves and loops of thick black linework bring energy and movement to the image. This print not only showcases Miró's mastery of compositional design but also highlights his technical brilliance. Through the combined use of aquatint for background colours etching for the bird's outline and carborundum to add texture and depth Miró creates a striking visual effect. Dupin 930 1976 unknown
rif. 1152851975 . Etching and aquatint in colours 1975 on Arches paper with the Maeght watermark signed in pencil and numbered 39/50 from the edition of 50 printed by Morsang Paris published by Maeght Paris with full margins sheet: 1381 x 955 mm. 54¼ x 37¾ in. 'La Contre-Balancée' highlights Miró's continued departure from traditional artistic conventions in the final decades of his life and showcases the artist's mastery in creating layered emotive artworks. In this print Miró depicts the abstracted form of a figure inviting viewers to interpret the image in their own unique way. The dynamic contrast between bold black strokes and delicate thin lines adds depth without using representational perspective. Miró's signature black forms blend seamlessly with vibrant blue and red geometric shapes giving the image an overall compositional balance. This etching and aquatint print demonstrates Miró's remarkable ability to merge abstraction with figuration capturing a playful simplicity in a visually captivating manner. Dupin 754 1975 unknown

Tzara composed these poems without punctuation or capitalisation in 1945 at the psychiatric hospital of Saint-Alban at the invitation of Dr. Lucien Bonnafé. Miro's early books published before the war were sparsely illustrated and so this is considered his first significant artist's book. It also represents the artist's first publishing project in collaboration with Maeght. This copy is one of only 20 examples on velin de Montval. The additional plate has been considerably heightened by Miro in crayon and signed and dated using a mixture of colours. Combined with the exquisite binding by Leroux this is a superlative example of Miro's Parler Seul. Paris, Maeght Editeur, 1950. unknown

First edition of this luxurious publication. No. 109 of 150 copies which include the 2 signed and numbered lithographs the total edition was 384. Miró began the series of gouaches reproduced in Constellations on September 21 1940 in Varengeuville Normandy where he was exiled from Francoist Spain. He created ten of the gouaches before the invasion of France by German troops pushed him to flee the country with his wife and daughter. He completed the twenty-third and final gouache of the series on September 12 1941. The village where he stayed was subject to a blackout and that fact prompted Miro's most luminous and affecting series of paintings the Constellations. Miró was originally in discussions with MoMA to exhibit Constellations but it was ultimately with the New York gallery owner Pierre Matisse that the complete series of 22 gouaches would be exhibited Miró having wished to keep the twenty-third in early 1945. It was not until 1959 when Matisse decided to publish reproductions. André Breton had been inspired by the series and wrote poems to accompany each work of art. Of the 384 copies produced only the first 150 included the 2 additional signed and numbered lithographs. In his preface to this edition Breton emphasized the historical significance. With the background of war and the occupation of France these works symbolized the triumphal “resistance” of art and the spirit of man in the face of the menace. They became the first new works from Europe to be exhibited in America following the ending of hostilities. The 22 works are arranged in the chronological order of their creation thus respecting one of the instructions given by the artist at the time of the New York exhibition. This arrangement was so important to Miró that as early as 1957 he insisted that each one indicate the date and place it was created. This information is reproduced on the back of the gouaches with a facsimile drawing. Pierre Matisse unknown
rif. 1152861974 . Etching and aquatint in colours 1974 on Arches wove paper signed in pencil and numbered 49/50 from the edition of 50 printed by Morsang Paris published by Maeght Paris sheet: 1392 x 960 mm. 54 x 37 in. 'La Femme Toupie' bursts with vibrant splashes of bright green yellow and orange. Created in 1974 this print is part of a series of 60 that Miró made between 1974 and 1975 using a combination of etching and aquatint. Central to the composition is the figure of a woman outlined in thick black lines. While abstracted in Miró's signature style her large black eyes nose and red mouth emerge distinctly. She raises her arms high and kicks one leg out spinning with joyful motion. Stars crown her head while swirling grey and orange washes behind her head enhance the print's sense of dynamic movement. A playful and evocative print it conveys both spontaneity and a deep emotional resonance. Dupin 652 1974 unknown
1967rif. 3152Paris, Tériade Éditeur, 1967. Un volume in-folio (450 x 345 mm) en feuilles sous couverture imprimée rempliée, chemise titrée or et étui de l'éditeur recouverts de toile écrue. - 38 LITHOGRAPHIES ORIGINALES DE MARC CHAGALL : 15 EN COULEURS DONT 3 À DOUBLE PAGE (450 x 687 mm) ET 18 EN NOIR.

Celui-ci est un exemplaire de collaborateur, il n'est donc ni numéroté ni signé. - Note historique et bibliophilique : Le sujet du cirque est l’un des thèmes les plus importants dans l’œuvre de Marc Chagall. Cette fascination remonte à l'enfance, quand il vit à Vitebsk une petite troupe itinérante exécuter quelques acrobaties maladroites devant un public indifférent : cette triste performance était-elle le destin de toute vie d’artiste ? C’est Ambroise Vollard, lui-même très amateur de cirque, qui incita Chagall à développer ce thème, mais c’est Tériade, qui après la mort de Vollard, le convainquit de travailler à un livre illustré de lithographies. Accompagné de textes de l’artiste, CIRQUE est certainement la meilleure réalisation lithographique de Chagall avec Daphnis & Chloé paru en 1961 chez le même éditeur, "sans aucun doute le plus personnel de tous ses livres, le plus exceptionnel aussi par l'intensité du trait et des couleurs, mais aussi par l'harmonie qu'il crée entre texte et peinture, enfin par le caractère même et la qualité de l'écriture" (Hommage à Tériade, Grand Palais, 1973). - ENGLISH DESCRIPTION: MARC CHAGALL (1887-1985) : CIRQUE, Tériade Editeur, Paris, 1967 (book/ portfolio).
