In 1924,  Miró deeply felt the ideological influence of surrealism in Paris, and he always insisted on the creation of surrealism in his artistic creation career in his later life. In style, Joan Miróis different from Picasso in the same period and Dali in naturalism. Joan Miró said: 'I make no distinction between poetry and painting.'. In his works, it clearly reflects the combination of these two, and ensures the purity, childishness and symbolism of art. This paper starts from the reality, analyzes the poetic grace of the picture caused by the repetition of symbols in Miró's paintings, and focuses on the embodiment of childlike and symbolism in the paintings.
