 ) Historical Description: Joan Miró « The Giant » is a dynamic composition of bold black lines and striking hues of grey. The powerful abstract figure which rises from the bottom of the composition and forms out of the intersecting lines is both human and a mythological, inviting the viewer to resist at any concrete interpretation. An intriguing dynamic between reality and abstraction. This work simplifies Miró’s masterful ability to create a world that is at once simple and magically complex, shifting and changing before our eyes as we focus on different elements of the work The large scale of this work truly allows us to step into the surreal world of Joan Miró Condition Report - a tear on the left upper left margin of the sheet that has been fixed by a restorer. - a small tear in the upper part of the plate that has been fixed by a restorer and reinforced with a small paper application on the back - Some occasional waving and small nicks on the margin of the sheet, quite common for large scale works like this one.
