Le Coq Sure Paris (35/125)
1958
Marc Chagall's Le Coq Sur Paris is a vibrant lithograph in colors that celebrates the artist's beloved rooster motif within a Parisian context. Created in 1958, this work combines Chagall's characteristic blend of Modernist sensibility with poetic and folkloric imagery drawn from his Eastern European heritage. The rooster, a recurring symbol in Chagall's vocabulary, represents vitality, freedom, and spiritual transcendence. The composition places this whimsical figure against the iconic cityscape, merging personal mythology with cosmopolitan culture. The limited edition of 125 reflects the work's status as a significant printmaking achievement.
