"Papasseit" Miró Earrings

Joan Miró i Ferrà (Barcelona, ​​April 20, 1893-Palma de Mallorca, December 25, 1983) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, engraver and ceramics artist. In his works he reflected his interest in the subconscious, in the "childish" and in the culture and traditions of Catalonia.

Although he is associated with abstract art due to his mature style of stylized and imaginary shapes, in his youth he began in figuration, with strong Fauvist, Cubist and Expressionist influences, moving on to a flat painting with a certain naive air, as is his well-known painting La Masía from the year 1920. After his stay in Paris, his work became more fanciful and dreamlike, coinciding with the points of surrealism and joining this movement.
