''The Hope of a Condemned Man'' is a series of three paintings by Joan Miró in 1974 which are now part of the permanent collection of the Joan Miró Foundation in Barcelona. == History == During the last years of Francoist Spain there were some controversial legal decisions that shocked the painter. Miró painted this triptych in reference to the ''hope of grace'' as he prayed for the life of the young anarchist Salvador Puig Antich 〔Yvars 1866 p. 398〕 finally executed by garotte. This series directly recalls another 1968 painting titled ''Painting on white background for the cell of a recluse''. The works are the result of a two year process during which Miró made several preparatory drawings with various ideas to approach the challenge. These drawings are preserved at the Miró Foundation. In February 1974 he painted these ideas, but he didn't finish the artwork until a month later, coinciding with the execution of another anarchist. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Hope of a Condemned Man」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
