7 Villa Aves del Paraiso 8 Evocation by Marc Chagall
Nestled into the cliffs of the Santiago Peninsula Marc Chagall’s lively, lyrical, and often whimsical
images enjoy universal appeal, securing
him a place in history as one of the most successful
artists of the twentieth century. Chagall
fills his canvas with vibrant colors reflecting his
passionate zest for life.
Evocation is a lithograph in colors from
1983, measuring 18” x 24”, and numbered
29 out of a limited edition of 50. The Miami
Valley School recently declined an offer from
Christie’s in New York to sell this print through
their auction house. We are proud to offer
it through our auction and to see it hang in
a Miami Valley home. This Chagall print is
archivally framed and enhanced with a linen
mat and a hand-gilded gold frame.
More than a collectible, it is a
hand-signed Chagall.
