About the Item
This exceptional lithograph after Marc Chagall (1887–1985), titled Palast von Alkinoos (Palace of Alcinous), 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 captivating composition illustrates Odysseus’s arrival at the majestic palace of Alcinous, king of the Phaeacians, rendered in Chagall’s luminous palette and expressive, dreamlike imagery that bridges myth, memory, and emotion.
Printed on 250 g/m² Bütten Papierwerke Miliani AG, Fabriano paper, measuring 14.88 x 11.69 inches (37.8 x 29.7 cm), Palast von Alkinoos (Palace of Alcinous) demonstrates Chagall’s lyrical mastery of mythological narrative and his ability to merge timeless legend with his signature poetic surrealism. Produced with the authorization of Vava Chagall, this edition is a striking testament to the artist’s lifelong fascination with divine encounters and human journeys. A distinguished work for collectors of Marc Chagall prints, modern art, and mythological themes.

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.
