Chagall was in his nineties when publisher Aimé Maeght suggested he produce a set of lithographs, leaving him complete freedom over theme and size. He thus went on to produce fourteen prints, known as The Fourteen Large Lithographs of 1980, which became the final prints he worked on during his lifetime. Utilising the maximum dimensions of master printer Charles Sorlier’s press, these prints are significantly larger than any of his previous works. Within them, Chagall created vividly coloured dream-like scenes in his distinctive poetic, vibrant and romantic style. Depicting Parisian landscapes, circus scenes, figures afloat and in passionate embrace, recurring animal and floral imagery, the works in this collection offer a wondrous insight into Chagall’s inner magical realm.
