JOAN MIRÓ
A Poem for Joan Miró.

Relief etching printed in black on cream wove paper, 1947. 250x180 mm; 9 7/8x7 1/8 inches, full margins. One of only several proofs (there was no published edition). Signed, dated and inscribed "epreuve pour Todd" in pencil, lower margin. Printed at Atelier 17, New York. A very good impression of this extremely scarce, early print.

One of six etchings that were the result of a collaboration among Miró, Ruthven Todd and Stanley W. Hayter at Atelier 17, New York, during the summer of 1947. Dupin volume I, pp. 16-17.
