Marc Chagall, Lithograph on Paper, William Shakespeare The Tempest
A poetic and haunting lithograph from Marc Chagall's celebrated illustration Ariel Confined in the Cloven Pine, from his 1975 suite inspired by William Shakespeare's The Tempest. Rendered in monochrome, this ethereal composition captures the spectral presence of Ariel imprisoned within a tree, as a supplicant figure reaches out below, an image at once mystical and deeply human. Chagall, one of the greatest modernist visionaries of the 20th century, was renowned for his dreamlike imagery, biblical and literary subjects, and profound use of symbolic form. Born in Belarus, Chagall's long and storied career took him from Paris to New York and back again, and his work continues to enchant with its blend of folklore, fantasy, and emotion. Presented here in a refined gilt frame with an engraved nameplate, this evocative piece combines fine art and literary heritage in a striking visual dialogue.
