Executed in 1961, the composition brims with vitality — bold biomorphic shapes and a radiant palette set against lush green evoke Miró’s fascination with the natural and the subconscious. The dynamic interplay of form, color, and gesture distills his surrealist-inspired vision into a dreamlike meditation on the relationship between humanity and nature.
