Artist: Marc Chagall (1887–1985) Title: Motherhood with Centaur (Maternite au Centaure) Year: 1957 Medium: Lithograph on velin paper Paper Size: 9.06 x 7.875 inches (23.01 x 20 cm) Condition: Well preserved, consistent with age and medium Inscription: Unsigned and unnumbered as issued Publisher: Maeght Editeur, Paris Printer: Mourlot Freres, Paris Catalogue raisonne reference: Chagall, Marc, and Julien Cain. Chagall Lithographe. Andre Sauret, Editeur, 1960, illustration 207. Cramer, Patrick, and Meret Meyer. Marc Chagall: Catalogue Raisonne Des Livres Illustres. P. Cramer ed., 1995, illustration 34 Notes: Excerpted from the album (translated from French), This album was printed by Drager Freres in Montrouge on behalf of Maeght Editeur, 13, Rue de Teheran, Paris VIII. The original color lithographs were drawn by Mourlot Freres. The photographs of the works printed are of Y. Hervochon, M. Routhier, Draeger. Copyright 1957. Additional notes: This exquisite lithograph by Marc Chagall (1887–1985), titled Maternite au Centaure (Motherhood with Centaur), from the album Chagall, originates from the 1957 edition published by Maeght Editeur, Paris, and printed by Mourlot Freres, Paris, 1957. This lyrical composition merges myth and tenderness, portraying the timeless bond of motherhood through Chagall’s poetic imagination. In Maternite au Centaure, a serene maternal figure is juxtaposed with a centaur—an emblem of instinct and vitality—creating a balance between the human and the mythical. The work resonates with Chagall’s fascination with universal themes of creation, nurturing, and love, rendered in his distinctive language of fluid form and radiant color. Through this synthesis of fantasy and emotion, Chagall transforms mythological symbolism into a meditation on the sacred essence of motherhood. The 1957 album Chagall, published by Maeght Editeur, Paris, and printed by Mourlot Freres, represents one of the great achievements in the collaboration between artist and master printer during the postwar period. Each lithograph in the volume reveals Chagall’s expressive range, from intimate reflection to mythic grandeur, united by his radiant use of color and emotional depth. The project brought together the visionary direction of Aimé Maeght and the technical brilliance of the Mourlot studio, producing works that stand as touchstones of 20th-century printmaking. This publication reflects the spirit of the modern livre d’artiste—where painter, poet, and craftsman worked in harmony to create art that transcends the boundaries of the page. Executed as a lithograph on velin paper, this work measures 9.06 x 7.875 inches (23.01 x 20 cm). Unsigned and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the superior craftsmanship of the Mourlot Freres atelier, celebrated for its close collaboration with Chagall and its mastery of fine color lithography. The 1957 album Chagall, published by Maeght Editeur, Paris, and printed by Mourlot Freres, represents a landmark collaboration between Marc Chagall and two of the foremost names in 20th-century art publishing and lithography. The album presents a selection of color lithographs that highlight the artist’s poetic vision and technical mastery of the medium. Each work exemplifies Chagall’s distinctive approach to composition—where figures, animals, and symbols of love and faith intertwine in a dreamlike harmony of form and color. The lithographs were printed with exceptional fidelity and brilliance, capturing the immediacy and emotional depth of Chagall’s hand. This publication stands as one of the most significant artistic documents of the postwar period, bridging modernist experimentation and spiritual lyricism through the timeless language of color and imagination. MARC CHAGALL (1887–1985) was a Belarus-born French painter, printmaker, and designer whose visionary imagination, radiant color, and deeply poetic symbolism made him one of the most beloved and influential artists of the 20th century. Rooted in the imagery of his Jewish heritage and the memories of his childhood in Vitebsk, Chagall’s art wove together themes of faith, love, folklore, and fantasy with a dreamlike modern sensibility. His unique style merging elements of Cubism, Fauvism, Expressionism, and Surrealism defied categorization, transforming ordinary scenes into lyrical meditations on memory and emotion. Influenced by Russian icon painting, medieval religious art, and the modern innovations of artists such as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, and Georges Braque, Chagall developed a profoundly personal visual language filled with floating figures, vibrant animals, musicians, and lovers that symbolized the transcendent power of imagination and love. During his early years in Paris, he became an integral part of the Ecole de Paris circle, forming friendships with Amedeo Modigliani, Fernand Leger, and Sonia Delaunay, and his creative spirit resonated with that of his peers and successors Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, artists who sought to push the boundaries of perception, emotion, and form. Over a prolific career that spanned painting, printmaking, stained glass, ceramics, and stage design, Chagall brought an unparalleled poetic sensibility to modern art, infusing even the most abstract subjects with human warmth and spiritual depth. His works are held in the most prestigious museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Centre Pompidou, the Tate, and the Guggenheim, where they continue to inspire generations of artists and collectors. The highest price ever paid for a Marc Chagall artwork is approximately 28.5 million USD, achieved in 2017 at Sotheby’s New York for Les Amoureux (1928). Marc Chagall Maternite...

The Kiss, no. 1 from the fifth installment of Das Werk Gustav Klimts Undoubtedly Klimt’s best known and most reproduced images, this printed version of The Kiss is the only one with which Klimt was directly involved. Unveiled at Vienna’s Kunstschau 1908, and saved for the fifth and final delivery of Das Werk, The Kiss marks a triumph in Klimt’s career and represents a culmination of many themes in his oeuvre up to that point. After all of the controversy surrounding the State’s prior rejection of the University murals commissioned from Klimt, the Ministry of Education reversed their policy toward the artist with a show of wholehearted support by purchasing for the Osterreichische Galerie BelvedereThe Kiss while it still hung in the Kunstschau exhibit. Considered in relation to the eight multicolored collotypes which preceded its print debut in the Das Werk portfolio, The Kiss literally embraces all which came before it. The golden seaweed dangling in tresses from the lovers’ feet harkens back to Water Snakes I and II. The bed of flowers evokes the settings Klimt created in both The Golden Knight and The Sunflower. In fact, this image sprung out of a particularly happy summer spent in the company of Klimt’s lover, Emilie Floge...

Artist: Marc Chagall (1887–1985) Title: The Bay of Angels (La Baie des Anges) Year: October 1960 Medium: Lithograph on velin paper Paper Size: 12.5 x 9.625 inches (31.75 x 24.45 cm) ...

Original collotype created from Gustav Klimt’s Approaching Thunderstorm (The Large Poplar II), painted in 1903. Published and edited by Verlag H.O. Miethke and printed by k.k. Hof- und Staatsdruckerei, Vienna, in an edition of 300. Between 1908 and 1914, H.O. Miethke published Das Werk Gustav Klimts, a folio of collotypes representing Gustav Klimt’s most notable works leading up to 1913. Klimt’s original oil paintings were painstakingly reproduced as collotypes on a handmade, deckled-edge cream wove paper using a complex gravure process overseen by master technicians as well as the artist himself. Each image presented in the folio was assigned its own unique signet, which was designed by Klimt and struck below the image using a technique similar to letterpress. The signet corresponded to a matching signet in the justification page which detailed the piece’s size, location, and owner. Published under the artist’s direct supervision, this series allowed Klimt, who had completely divorced himself from public commissions following the outcry from his University of Vienna paintings, to more effectively present his artworks to institutions and patrons across the world. A testament to the masterful design and printmaking demonstrated by Das Werk Gustav Klimts, Emperor Franz Joseph himself purchased the first copy of the folio. Klimt’s The Swamp...
