Today, Google honors Joan Miro.

In 12th grade AP Art History, I wrote my term paper on Miro's Nocturne. The paper was pretentious bullshit, as I recall, tying together pretty much every pre-war, Continental, semi-existentialist book I had read, skimmed, or glanced at the cover of. All six of them.

I really think that the CMA's reading of this work as being affected by the upcoming Civil War (which was my reading in my term paper -- you think they cribbed it from me?) is somewhat implausible, what with it being painted the year before and possibly (though I can't confirm this) in Paris and all.
