A monumental and rare signed impression of one of the most celebrated images in 20th-century French cultural life. Marc Chagall 7 July 1887 28 March 1985 was one of the most celebrated and beloved artists of the 20th century. Born Marc Zakharovich Shagal in Vitebsk Belarus then part of the Russian Empire he trained in Saint Petersburg before moving to Paris in 1910 where he became part of the vibrant avant-garde of Montparnasse. Drawing on Jewish folk tradition Russian culture and the imagery of his Belarusian childhood Chagall developed a uniquely dreamlike visual language infused with lovers floating above villages fiddlers on rooftops animals angels and mystical biblical scenes. Associated with Fauvism Cubism and Surrealism yet belonging to none he was the quintessential 'School of Paris' master. His monumental stained-glass windows ceiling paintings including the Paris Opéra and tapestries brought his vision to public spaces worldwide. Chagall's work is held at MoMA in New York the Tate in London the Centre Pompidou in Paris the Guggenheim and the Musée National Marc Chagall in Nice inaugurated in 1973 and dedicated to his biblical message cycle. He remains one of the most sought-after names in 20th-century prints with original lithographs consistently coveted by collectors worldwide.This large-format original color lithograph depicts a detail of Chagall's celebrated ceiling painting for the Paris Opéra the Palais Garnier commissioned by André Malraux and completed in 1964. The ceiling comprising 220 square metres of painted canvas divided into five colour zones pays homage to the great composers Mozart Wagner Berlioz Rameau and Debussy and was unveiled to wide acclaim. The scene depicted here 'Roméo et Juliette' is among the most lyrical passages of the ceiling showing lovers entwined in Chagall's signature floating reverie. The lithograph was produced in 1964 by Mourlot Paris and lithographically interpreted and engraved by Charles Sorlier Mourlot's chief lithographer and Chagall's most trusted technical collaborator as indicated by the imprint 'D'après Marc Chagall Ch.
