  • “Venice”
    By Marc Chagall
    Located in Southampton, NY
    Description: People have collected autographs of notables for hundreds of years. The desire to have a personal memento from a famous and or important artist drives the collecting field. The top rung of the ladder, in terms of popularity, is a relatively small group of artists called ‘icons’. These are people who’s names and images stay with us, appearing with regularity in our culture. The 20th Century Masters such as Chagall, Picasso, Matisse, Miro, Dali and more recently, Warhol fit this description. The renowned French printer, Fernand Mourlot, printed many of the original posters for the most important artists of the day. In 1959 the studio printed the series Affiches Originales for collectors. They are reduced lithographic versions of the original posters created by the contemporary masters, Picasso, Chagall, Braque, Matisse, Miro, Leger, and Dufy. This announcement was for an Easter exhibition in the city of Vence. This very rare and desirable 1959 Mourlot poster, of which only 1500 were printed and only a handful known to have been signed, has been signed in pencil by the artist, Marc Chagall. The original larger poster...
