Historical Description by Masterworks Fine Art Gallery:
"In Marc Chagall Le Cirque a Clown Jaune (The Circus with the Yellow Clown), 1967, a vividly colored yellow clown is central to the lively circus scene. Its charismatic expression and whimsical gestures make this one of Chagall's more humorous and exciting circus renditions. The bright mustard yellows are cleverly offset with subtle sea greens and blues, set against a background of chestnut brown. We can even see the roaring crowd stacked in the stands, excitedly watching his gestural and colorful performance. Chagall invites us to be an active participant in this delightful circus show, successfully accomplishing the often difficult task of engaging an audience with a work of art. We become even more entranced with the work because the clown looks directly out at us, and cups his hand by his mouth, as if saying something just for us to hear. He holds his left hand in a beckoning position - and the viewer is taken in."
Marc Chagall (Russian, 1887 - 1985)
