{"product_id":"nord-sud-joan-miro","title":"Nord-Sud - Joan Miró","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 1917 still life by Joan Miró, featuring a tabletop arrangement of domestic objects rendered in a bold, Fauvist-inspired style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePainted in 1917, Nord-Sud represents an early stage in the career of Joan Miró. During this period, the artist engaged with the visual language of Fauvism and Cubism, experimenting with bold colour and flattened perspective. The composition features a tabletop arrangement containing a variety of objects, including a birdcage, a potted plant, a pair of scissors, and a book by Goethe. A central plaque bears the title of the work, Nord-Sud, which refers to the Paris Metro line. This inclusion of text and everyday objects demonstrates the influence of contemporary avant-garde movements on his early practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe application of paint is energetic, with visible brushwork and a palette dominated by saturated tones. Miró uses these colours to define the forms of the objects rather than to replicate their natural appearance. The space is compressed, with the table surface tilted upwards to display the items clearly. This approach creates a sense of immediacy and decorative rhythm across the canvas. The inclusion of the birdcage and the specific literary reference suggests a personal, domestic setting, yet the treatment remains detached and analytical. This work offers a view into the formative years of an artist who would later move towards surrealist abstraction. It captures a moment of transition where the artist balanced traditional still life subjects with a modern, expressive application of paint. The composition avoids a single point of focus, instead encouraging the eye to move across the various shapes and patterns arranged on the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/still-life-with-a-pewter-jug-and-pink-statuette-henri-matisse\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eStill Life with a Pewter Jug and Pink Statuette by Henri Matisse\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/guitar-and-glass-juan-gris\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eGuitar and Glass by Juan Gris\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Joan Miró","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139393421647,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139400728911,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139400761679,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139400794447,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139400827215,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139400859983,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139400892751,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139400925519,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139400958287,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139400991055,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139401023823,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139401056591,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Nord-Sud_Poster_CompositorV1_1792122569630.jpg?v=1792209798","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/nord-sud-joan-miro","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
