Rupestres XII

Joan Miró and Josep Llorens i Artigas (a celebrated Spanish ceramicist) visited the Altamira Cave in Cantabria, Spain in 1957. He returned from the trip inspired by the ancient artworks painted on the caves walls, and by the artists’ lasting influence. The works resulting are two series of etchings inspired by the cave paintings, Els Rupestres and Grans Rupestres, both created in 1979.
