Marc Chagall - The Revolution (Study for a Murals of the Moscow State Jewish Theater)
This item is a framed print after the work of Marc Chagall, titled 'The Revolution,' originally executed in 1937. The piece features a complex, dreamlike composition typical of Chagall's Surrealist and Expressionist style, depicting Lenin doing a handstand on a table amidst a chaotic scene of musicians, soldiers, and goats, symbolizing the upheaval of the Russian Revolution. The artwork is characterized by a vibrant yet moody color palette of deep blues, reds, and snowy whites. The print is housed in a modern, champagne-silver metallic frame with a slight beveled edge. It is professionally matted with a clean white window mat. A prominent facsimile signature of 'Marc Chagall' is visible in the lower right-hand margin of the white border. The print appears to be a high-quality lithographic or digital reproduction on heavy paper. While the frame and matting appear to be in excellent contemporary condition, the nature of the signature being printed rather than hand-signed suggests this is a decorative exhibition poster or a commercial reproduction rather than a signed limited edition lithograph. No visible foxing or fading is apparent, though glare on the glass indicates standard framing glass rather than museum-grade anti-reflective glazing.
