Joan MIRO (1893–1983) - Lot 2
Joan MIRO (1893–1983) The Hamlet, 1907 Black pencil and colored pencils on paper. Signed lower right "Joan Miró F." and dated 1907 23.5 x 30.5 cm (Traces of glue, small tears along the edges, and yellowing of the paper) The earliest surviving sketchbooks by the painter date from 1905. In 1907, Miró enrolled at the Barcelona School of Commerce and attended primarily the Llotja School of Fine Arts. Our drawing, like those from 1907, is influenced by the teachings of the Catalan artist Modest Urgell, a landscape painter known for his empty and desolate spaces. Very similar drawings from 1907 by the young Miró are cataloged (see nos. 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, pp. 33 and 34) in the book *Miró Drawings, Volume I*, by Jacques Dupin and Ariane Lelong-Mainaud, published by Succession Miró/Daniel Lelong, Paris.
