Le Lezard Aux Plumes Dor Appraisal

Joan Miró Lithograph, 'Le Lézard aux plumes d'or' (The Lizard with Golden Feathers)

This item is a framed lithograph by the Spanish Surrealist master Joan Miró, likely from the 'Le Lézard aux plumes d'or' series or a similar late-career period (circa 1960s-1970s). The artwork features Miró's signature abstract vocabulary, including bold black calligraphic strokes, organic shapes, and primary color accents in red, green, and blue. The central composition is surrounded by decorative black dots and splatters characteristic of his lithographic technique. A visible pencil signature and numbering are present in the lower right margin, which appear consistent with authentic hand-signed editions. The piece is professionally mounted with a cream-colored inner mat and a thick black suede or velvet outer liner. The frame is an ornate, gilded wood or composite molding with intricate floral/filigree relief work. Regarding condition, the paper appears stable with no immediate signs of foxing or water damage, though some light undulation in the paper suggests it is not fully laid down. The gilding on the frame shows a bright, consistent patina with no obvious chips. The glass exhibits high reflectivity, indicating it may not be museum-grade non-reflective acrylic, which is a consideration for long-term UV protection of the print's vivid pigments.
