Here goes a painting that I like, by Joan Miró. It is part of the permanent collection at Museo Reina Sofia in Madrid.


I first saw it a few years ago and, to be honest, I think that the reasons why I like it still continue to escape me somehow. And yet I know that I do like it. I guess I do partly because of its apparent simplicity and partly because of its choice of colors (or lack thereof); but, above all, I think that I like this picture because of the fact that, quoting Oscar Wilde, even though we are all in the gutter, some of us do actually enjoy looking at the stars.
