Originally listed in Joan Miró’s catalogue raisonné as an untitled work painted circa 1939, Sotheby’s rediscovered L’oiseau du matin’s poetic name on the back of the canvas in the process of unframing it. This was written in Miró’s handwriting alongside the exact date he had executed it: 16 August 1939.

Appearing on the market for the first time, the whimsical work is inspired by the world of the circus, one that fascinated Miró, with a tightrope walker progressing as other characters perform below in the ring. Sotheby’s specialist @aurelie_vandevoorde shares more about the rediscovery and the story behind the work – watch the full video at the link in bio.

It will star in ‘Le Souffle Moderne’, in partnership with François de Ricqlès Conseil, at #SothebysParis on 19 April. Uncovering a time capsule of avant-garde art by some of the 20th century’s greatest masters, the works in this sale were housed in the same Parisian collection for over sixty years and have never been at auction before. The exhibition is on view to the public at our Paris galleries until 18 April.
