Miro's work thereafter would stay populated with images of specifically Catalan identity. ''Hard at work and full of enthusiasm,'' he reported to a friend from Montroig in 1923. ''Monstrous animals and angelic animals. Trees with eyes and ears All the pictorial problems resolved. We must explore all the golden sparks of our souls.''

He spelled out the code of the emerging black bourgeoisie: ''To be the full equal of the white man, there are two particular things we need--education and wealth.''
