Channeling pointillism, Miró creates a bold image comprised of colorful dots. Varying from his primary color palette, Miró intersperses purple and sienna hues amidst bright greens, blues, reds, and yellows. His trademark black lines provide a stark contrast against these dotted applications of color. Upon closer observation, we realize that these black lines are also comprised of closely applied dots. With its joyful color palette and whimsical imagery, Catalogue of the Exhibtion "Cartones" gives off a positive, fun energy that is sure to fill the space in which it is displayed.

Created in 1965, this color lithograph is hand-signed by Joan Miró (Barcelona, 1893 - Palma, 1983) in pencil in the lower right and numbered from the edition of 75 in pencil in the lower left.
