The artwork “Three Nudes,” created in 1984 by Marc Chagall in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, France, belongs to the Surrealism art movement. This nude painting, measuring 54.5 x 42.5 cm, features a composition in which three figures are depicted in a surreal and whimsical setting.
“Three Nudes” presents a surrealistic depiction of three nude figures standing close together, seemingly fused in an intimate embrace. Their bodies and faces, outlined with bold black lines, display a sense of unity and harmony. The background of the piece is filled with soft, diffuse colors, predominately in shades of green and blue, giving a dream-like quality to the scene. Additionally, the backdrop features various elements of flora and fauna as well as a prominently placed red sun, contributing to the ethereal atmosphere. The entire scene is framed by a pattern of dots along the edges, further enhancing its whimsical and fantastical nature.
