...traditional dance known as a sardana. Much barer works followed: the astonishing series of a dozen or so large landscapes that Miro produced in Montroig in 1926 and 1927, which include Dog Barking at the Moon, Animated Landscape and Landscape with Rabbit and Flower. It is as hard to account for the spell of the last of these as it is to evade it. It is quintessential Miro -- a field divided roughly in half by a rambling horizon line, the earth featureless and red, the sky equally featureless (except for the ceremonious care with which the paint has been deposited...
