From the edition of 100, the artwork is signed 'Miró' lower right and annotated lower left. The artwork is framed in a contemporary black frame and has a framed size of 35 x 46\". The artwork ships framed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCreated in 1981, Joan Miró’s \"Allegro Vivace\" suite reflects the vitality and economy of his late lithographic work. The title, taken from music, suggests a fast and lively tempo, and the prints carry that sense of rhythm through animated black line, bright color, and shifting constellations of signs. Produced late in Miró’s career, the suite shows an artist still working with confidence, reducing his visual language to essential forms while maintaining a strong sense of movement and play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"La première nuit du printemps,\" from the series, uses Miró’s familiar vocabulary of eyes, stars, floating forms, and bold black gestures. The composition is energetic, but carries distinct emotional tones. \"La première nuit du printemps\" has a different kind of rhythm. While equally active, it feels slightly denser and more atmospheric. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe title, \"The First Night of Spring,\" introduces a sense of renewal and anticipation, and the composition supports that idea through layered movement, floating signs, and flashes of red, blue, green, yellow, and pink. The forms appear to gather and unfold, creating the impression of a night sky or dream space coming alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMiró uses color directly and sparingly, allowing red, blue, yellow, green, and black to function almost like musical notes. The marks do not describe a fixed scene; instead, they create a tempo of movement, pause, and response. This balance between spontaneity and control is central to the appeal of the suite. The images feel immediate, yet carefully composed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis lithograph offers a clear view of Miró’s late graphic language: simplified, rhythmic, inventive, and accessible without becoming literal. It is not a narrative illustration, but a visual performance built from line, color, and movement. As works from \"Allegro Vivace,\" like \"La première nuit du printemps\" capture the spirited character of the suite and the enduring freshness of Miró’s imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Joan Miró","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52015928770877,"sku":"LTMIR1244SC","price":48500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/3581\/files\/LTMIR1244SC__P-Image_La_premiere_nuit_du_printemps_LTMIR1244SC_NU0043_sm_ed_bl_5eadf46b-0884-4195-8924-336397c10aa2.jpg?v=1784733720","url":"https:\/\/martinlawrence.com\/products\/la-premiere-nuit-du-printemps-allegro-vivace-m-1244-1981","provider":"Martin Lawrence Galleries","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
