A selection from the publication that accompanies this image reads, “Man the imitated illusion, Pure eyes in the woods, Are searching in tears for a habitable head.” In this abstract character one can see Miró’s interpretation of the Char’s vision. Depicting a bold and colorful image with a variety of textural qualities, this work conveys a sense of movement and liveliness with a depth and longing. The juxtaposition of vertical and horizontal lines set against a textured background with the varying colors creates an engaging work that leads the viewer’s eye from the center of the composition outwards, always engaging.
