Femme Bijoux belongs to Miró’s late-career period where he fully embraced printmaking, particularly carborundum aquatint—a technique that allowed for rich textures and bold abstraction. This piece showcases Miró's fascination with the female form, often stylized into powerful archetypes, merging elements of Surrealism, Catalan mysticism, and abstract expressionism.
The work is emblematic of Miró's playful yet deeply symbolic visual language, rooted in dreams, the subconscious, and cosmic forms. Here, the “jeweled woman” may represent fertility, creativity, or transformation, echoing prehistoric idols and modernist abstraction in one figure.
