{"product_id":"joan-miro-the-caress-of-the-stars-1938","title":"Joan Miro, The Caress of the Stars, 1938","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"378\"\u003e“The Caress of the Stars” (1938) by Joan Miró is a luminous and introspective work created at a moment of deep political and emotional upheaval. Painted during the Spanish Civil War and on the brink of the Second World War, the work reflects Miró’s turn inward, using poetic symbolism and abstraction to respond to violence and uncertainty without direct representation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"380\" data-end=\"865\"\u003eThe composition is spare yet charged with energy. Against a largely open background, Miró places floating signs—stars, dots, curved lines, and biomorphic shapes—that appear to drift in a boundless nocturnal space. The stars are not distant astronomical objects but intimate presences, gently interacting with the other forms. The notion of a “caress” suggests tenderness, contact, and vulnerability, transforming the cosmos into a realm of emotional exchange rather than cold infinity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"867\" data-end=\"1362\"\u003eMiró’s color palette is restrained and carefully balanced. Deep blues, blacks, and muted earth tones establish a nocturnal atmosphere, while small bursts of brighter color introduce moments of warmth and vitality. Lines are fluid and calligraphic, conveying a sense of spontaneity, yet their placement is deliberate, creating a quiet visual rhythm across the surface. The interplay between line and color reinforces the sensation of lightness and suspension, as if the forms are held in the air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1364\" data-end=\"1724\"\u003eSymbolically, the painting can be read as an assertion of poetic freedom in a time of crisis. By invoking stars—traditional symbols of guidance, hope, and transcendence—Miró gestures toward a universal order beyond human conflict. The act of caressing suggests care and connection, countering the surrounding atmosphere of fear with gentleness and imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PrintsXXL","offers":[{"title":"canvas \/ 16''x19''(40x48)","offer_id":52445872161034,"sku":"195224","price":55.93,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 19''x23''(48x58)","offer_id":52445872193802,"sku":"195224","price":59.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 23''x28''(58x71)","offer_id":52445872226570,"sku":"195224","price":65.45,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 27''x33''(68x83)","offer_id":52445872259338,"sku":"195224","price":73.78,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 31''x37''(78x95)","offer_id":52445872292106,"sku":"195224","price":96.39,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 35''x42''(88x107)","offer_id":52445872324874,"sku":"195224","price":115.43,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 39''x47''(98x120)","offer_id":52445872357642,"sku":"195224","price":123.76,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"canvas \/ 41''x50''(104x127)","offer_id":52445872390410,"sku":"195224","price":135.66,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 16''x19''(40x48)","offer_id":52445872423178,"sku":"195224","price":52.36,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 19''x23''(48x58)","offer_id":52445872455946,"sku":"195224","price":55.93,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 23''x28''(58x71)","offer_id":52445872488714,"sku":"195224","price":64.26,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 27''x33''(68x83)","offer_id":52445872521482,"sku":"195224","price":70.21,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 31''x37''(78x95)","offer_id":52445872554250,"sku":"195224","price":91.63,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 35''x42''(88x107)","offer_id":52445872587018,"sku":"195224","price":108.29,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 39''x47''(98x120)","offer_id":52445872619786,"sku":"195224","price":114.24,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"matte photo paper \/ 41''x50''(104x127)","offer_id":52445872652554,"sku":"195224","price":123.76,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 16''x19''(40x48)","offer_id":52445872685322,"sku":"195224","price":48.79,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 19''x23''(48x58)","offer_id":52445872718090,"sku":"195224","price":52.36,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 23''x28''(58x71)","offer_id":52445872750858,"sku":"195224","price":60.69,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 27''x33''(68x83)","offer_id":52445872783626,"sku":"195224","price":66.64,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 31''x37''(78x95)","offer_id":52445872816394,"sku":"195224","price":88.06,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 35''x42''(88x107)","offer_id":52445872849162,"sku":"195224","price":104.72,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 39''x47''(98x120)","offer_id":52445872881930,"sku":"195224","price":110.67,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"fine art photo paper \/ 41''x50''(104x127)","offer_id":52445872914698,"sku":"195224","price":120.19,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/9656\/3466\/files\/195224.jpg?v=1769199041","url":"https:\/\/printsxxl.com\/es\/products\/joan-miro-the-caress-of-the-stars-1938","provider":"PrintsXXL","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
