Marc Chagall – Profile and Red Child

Mysterious and quietly haunting, Profile and Red Child exemplifies Chagall's gift for layering human figures into compositions of psychological depth and poetic ambiguity. A monumental profile dominates the picture plane while a small red child occupies the periphery — a pairing that suggests the tensions between scale, innocence, and experience that run throughout the artist's work. From the celebrated Mourlot Lithographe I portfolio, this 1960 lithograph is a striking example of Chagall's mature graphic vision. An original unnumbered lithograph from one of the most significant print catalogues of the twentieth century. Presented framed and ready to hang.
