1965

About the Item

Lithograph on vélin paper. Inscription: unsigned and unnumbered, as issued. Good condition, with centerfold, as issued. Notes: From the volume, Le Plafond de l'Opéra de Paris, par Marc Chagall, 1965. Published by Éditions André Sauret, Monte Carlo, under the direction of André Sauret, éditeur, Monte Carlo; printed by Mourlot Frères, Paris in an edition of V̅, October 6, 1965. Excerpted from the volume (translated from French), This work could not have been made without the valuable collaboration of Mrs. Marc Chagall, to whom we extend our warmest thanks. This work, made by André Sauret, was completed to print on October 6, 1965 on the presses of l'Imprimerie du Lion in Paris. Jacques Lassaigne's texts were composed by hand in Romain du Roi in the workshops of l'Imprimerie Nationale. The six color lithographs and all the black and white drawings were set on stone by Charles Sorlier based on Marc Chagall's original models. The original lithography and color lithographs were drawn on the presses of Mourlot Frères. The binding is by Maurice Busenhart in Lausanne. The six color photographs of the entire ceiling are from Jean Dubout; the eight black photographs of the technical realization of the ceiling are by Izis. MARC CHAGALL (1897-1985) Russian-Jewish painter is recognized as one of the most significant painters and graphic artists of his time. Chagall painted in a style all his own, combining elements of Expressionism, Symbolism, Cubism and, to a lesser degree, other Modernist art movements. His works combine recollection with folklore and fantasy. A prolific and multi-faceted artist, Chagall left behind him thousands of works in many different techniques and media that have established him as one of the foremost artists of the 20th Century.
