• Made in the UK

A colourful Surrealist work, 'Ballerina II' from 1925 is by Joan Miro. This reproduction print is presented in an ash wood frame, arriving ready to wall mount.

The frame is made of carefully selected North American ash wood from sustainably managed forests. The wood is consistent in colour and grain and the timber is milled in the UK and finished by hand. Black staining is applied, followed by a hand-polished coloured wax, creating a deep lustre.

Born in Barcelona, Joan Miro (1893-1983) was a seminal figure in Twentieth Century avant-garde painting. As a young man, Miro was trained in commerce but soon abandoned the business world to pursue a career in the arts, enrolling at a fine art academy in his native Spain, in defiance of his parents' wishes. As an artist, he became known for combining Surrealism with abstract art, and created his own signature style that is instantly recognisable, even today.

His bold sense of imagination conjured a unique visual language of organic shapes, calligraphic lines and semi-abstract forms. Miro's works are whimsical yet intricate with a passionate use of bold, block colour.
