The artwork, titled “Paradise,” was created in 1961 by the renowned artist Marc Chagall in France. It is a pencil-on-paper sketch and study, measured at 18.5 x 28.9 cm. Chagall’s work contributes to the Surrealism art movement.
In the artwork, Chagall employs vibrant hues and fluid, dynamic forms to depict an ethereal scene reminiscent of a fantastical paradise. The composition features various whimsical and expressive figures, both human and mythical, interwoven with natural elements such as foliage and celestial bodies. The overlapping imagery and dreamlike quality of the sketch are characteristic of Chagall’s surreal and poetic style, creating a rich tapestry of color, emotion, and imaginative narrative.
