Additional Details: This first edition lithograph by Alexander Calder, from Derrière le Miroir (DLM) number 212, showcases Calder's playful and abstract style. The image features two figures, one in red and one in black, both with three legs and wearing high heels. Published by Derrière le Miroir, this lithograph captures Calder's fascination with movement and whimsical forms, characteristic of his broader body of work. In this lithograph, Calder's use of three-legged figures in high heels is a striking and curious element that invites interpretation. The inclusion of three legs can be seen as an exaggeration of movement and balance, themes Calder often explored in his kinetic sculptures and mobiles. By adding an extra leg, Calder might be emphasizing the fluidity and dynamism of his figures, suggesting a state of perpetual motion.
