1963

About the Item

Les peintres Témoins de leur Temps is a rare vintage poster realized in the 1963 in offset and lithograph after Marc Chagall (Lëzna, 1887 – Saint-Paul-de-Vence, 1985). This poster was published by Charles Sorlier, under the artist's supervision in occasion of the exhibition "Les Peintres Témoins de Leurs Temps" in 1963. This salon was an annual art exhibition held in Gallieria Museum in Paris and organized by Isis Kischka for the first time in 1951 until 1983. Charles Sorlier was the designated craftsman for Marc Chagall at the Mourlot Studio. The artwork is based on a painting by Chagall entitled "The Revolution" where the central figure is Vladimir Lenin doing a handstand on a table, and in the process, dropping his red flag. Good conditions except for some light stains. Marc Chagall (Lëzna, 1887 – Saint-Paul-de-Vence, 1985). Chagall was a Russian-French artist of Belarusian Jewish origin. An early modernist, he was associated with several major artistic styles and created works in a wide range of artistic formats, including painting, drawings, book illustrations, stained glass, stage sets, ceramics, tapestries and fine art prints. Before World War I, he travelled between Saint Petersburg, Paris, and Berlin. During this period he created his own mixture and style of modern art based on his idea of Eastern Europe and Jewish folk culture. He spent the wartime years in Soviet Belarus, becoming one of the country's most distinguished artists and a member of the modernist avant-garde, founding the Vitebsk Arts College before leaving again for Paris in 1923.
