Joan Miro was a seminal figure in 20th 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. As an artist, he swiftly became known for combining Surrealism with abstract art to create a 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 colours. Design for a Tapestry is a lithographic print that makes a statement in the home.
