This is an etching made by Joan Miro. I liked this piece because of the lack of color. I like how black and white is the dominant in the etching. I also like how the etching looks like a jungle cat like a panther. This etching also look cartoonist in a way, like the panther from the Jungle Book. Also the entire figure from the etching isnt fully etched out and I like that too because you can still see what the etching is of.
