Description

Marc Chagall (1887-1985) - Chagall exhibition, 1959. Musée des Arts décoratifs, Paris. Mourlot, Paris. 75x 51 cm. Original poster, lithograph. Not canvas-backed. Condition A. Perfect condition. Produced for the exhibition devoted to Marc Chagall in 1959 at the Musée des Arts décoratifs in Paris. Original lithograph, 1500 proofs with text. Ref: Les affiches de Chagall, p. 35. This poster marked the institutional recognition of one of the great masters of modern painting. Chagall developed a singular poetic universe combining memory, Jewish tradition, biblical figures and personal imagination, in an immediately recognisable luminous palette. A major artist of the twentieth century, he was exhibited in the greatest international institutions and helped to spread a figurative modernity imbued with lyricism and symbolism. This Paris exhibition confirms his central status in post-war art and the official recognition of his work in France.
