Marc Chagall ( 1887 - 1985 ) The French Russian born Jewish Expressionist artist is known for both his sense of color and fluid aesthetic, His early Modernist artworks explore concepts and themes of spirituality, angelic influences, and the Jewish cultural life human experience. Chagall is commonly regarded as the quintessential preeminent Jewish artist of The 20th Century. His mastery of the expressive language of color, and creations in nearly every medium and form of art won him recognition as a leading figure in world Modern Art. Artworks by Chagall are included in the collections of many of the world's most prestigious museums.
The venerable famous printing house of Imprimerie Mourlot Paris was founded in 1852 by the Mourlot family. It is known worldwide for its fine art lithography printing, and one of their most important contributions was to be the art poster. Mourlot became the place where posters were prepared as works of art in their own right.
This landmark fine art lithograph poster is one of the most iconic and desirable of the collaboration and long lasting partnership between the artist Chagall and Atelier Mourlot who together would created many important art posters. An example of this same poster is held in the permanent archive collection of many museums worldwide including The Museum of Modern Art, New York and The Musee National Marc Chagall, Nice.
Beginning in the 1930's Fernand Mourlot invited the major master artists of the time into the lithography studio to learn the medium of printing together. Encouraging the artists to work directly on the lithograph plates top create original prints and posters in limited editions. The results of this artistic collaboration between master artists and Mourlot became internationally known for their originality, beauty, and exquisite craftsmanship.
Chagall had a strong attachment to the city of Nice, visiting there for the first time in 1926. The painter's eye was irresistibly attracted to the azure blue of the sea, brightness of the sky, and intense flamboyant vegetation. This Chagall work " Nice, Soleil Fleurs " shines as a radiant gem and masterpiece in his overall oeuvre, while capturing the spirit of The French Rivera with unparalleled charm, evoking the essence of the city of Nice.
