The Barcelona artist Joan Miró is one of the great exponents of surrealism. A multifaceted artist who excelled as a painter, sculptor, engraver and ceramicist. Although he studied commerce and worked for two years as a clerk in a drugstore, it was an illness, typhoid fever, that forced him to retire for convalescence in Mont-roig, a small town in the Baix Camp region, in a farmhouse that their parents had just bought it. It was there that he decided to dedicate himself fully to painting and enrolled in the Francesc Galí School of Art, where he met other great artists such as Joan Prats, Josep Francesc Ràfols, Enric Cristòfol Ricart and Josep Llorens Artigas, among others.
