Miró created the triptych late in his career, drawing on his memories of the Mediterranean sky and his desire to escape the material world. The blue background is not flat but layered, suggesting infinite depth. The floating shapes a red dot, a black curve, a star-like form are archetypal Miró symbols, evoking a sense of weightlessness and poetic freedom.
