About the Item
This exceptional lithograph after Marc Chagall (1887–1985), titled Odysseus und seine Gefährten (Odysseus and His Companions), originates from the distinguished German edition of Homer’s Die Odyssee (The Odyssey). Published in 1989 by Daco-Verlag Günter Bläse, Stuttgart, and printed by Lichtdruck AG, Zürich, Dielsdorf, the work represents a refined second edition of Chagall’s original lithographs created for the 1974–75 French edition of L’Odyssée. This striking composition depicts Odysseus and his loyal companions on their epic journey, infused with Chagall’s hallmark lyricism, color, and emotional depth.
Printed on 250 g/m² Bütten Papierwerke Miliani AG, Fabriano paper, measuring 14.88 x 11.69 inches (37.8 x 29.7 cm), Odysseus und seine Gefährten (Odysseus and His Companions) embodies Chagall’s poetic fusion of myth and imagination. Produced with the authorization of Vava Chagall, this edition exemplifies the artist’s enduring mastery of narrative symbolism and chromatic harmony. A superb addition for collectors of Marc Chagall prints, modern art, and mythological illustration, this work stands as a timeless tribute to Homer’s classic tale.

About the artist:
Marc Chagall (1887–1985) was a Russian-French modernist painter whose visionary style blended Cubism, Fauvism, and Surrealism with deeply personal symbolism drawn from Jewish folklore, biblical themes, and village life. Born in Vitebsk, Belarus, and later active in Paris, Chagall developed a poetic visual language marked by floating figures, vibrant color, and dreamlike compositions that transcend time and place. His work reflects a synthesis of memory, spirituality, and emotion, positioning him as one of the most expressive and influential artists of the twentieth century.
Chagall’s paintings, stained glass, and prints are housed in major institutions including the Museum of Modern Art, the Centre Pompidou, and the Chagall Museum in Nice. Revered for his fusion of imagination and modernist innovation, his art continues to captivate collectors worldwide.
The highest auction price for a Chagall artwork is USD 28,453,000, achieved by Les Amoureux (1928) at Sotheby’s New York in 2017.
