Miro, Joan

147727 Miro, Joan The Perseides III 1970 M.658 25 7/8'' x 20'' Lithograph in color on Rives vellum with watermark. Signed in pencil lower right. From the numbered edition of 75 examples (15 Roman numeral proofs on Rives vellum, 5 hors commerce proof impressions on Japon nacre and 15 Roman numeral proofs on Japon nacre also exist). From the collection of Louis Broder, the publisher. The art publisher, Louis Broder was active in the 20th century as a collaborator and publisher of many important graphic works. He commissioned artists such as Picasso, Braque, Jean Arp, Jacques Villon, Andre Masson and many others to create interpretations of literary works, poems, or conceptual ideas through a variety of media. His collaborations with Miro through the Mourlot lithographic atelier in Paris created four suites of color lithographs in 1970 and 1971. Only a few examples of these works were offered initially through a gallery in Paris in the early 1970's and then only sporadically over the ensuing years. The remaining unsold examples were held by the estate, after the death of Louis Broder, for 35 years until Park West Gallery acquired the entire remaining collection which had been stored by the publisher.
