Graphic work made in the context of the prestigious publication Derrière le Miroir, edited by the Galerie Maeght, one of the fundamental platforms for the diffusion of modern art in the second half of the 20th century. These editions, conceived in close collaboration with the artists, constitute a hybrid space between magazine, graphic work and art edition.

The works published in Derrière le Miroir occupy a prominent place in Miró's graphic production, being especially appreciated for their technical quality, their closeness to the artist's creative process and their historical relevance within the modern art publishing scene.

Joan Miró was one of the most influential figures of 20th century art and one of the great referents of surrealism and poetic abstraction. His work is preserved in the collections of the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (MNAC) and the Fundació Joan Miró in Barcelona, as well as in international institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, the Tate in London, the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. His deeply personal visual language decisively transformed the relationship between sign, color and space in modern art.
