This lithograph was created for the portfolio celebrating the completion of the ceiling of the Paris Opera by Marc Chagall in 1962; on the back of the lithograph is the first maquette prepared by Chagall, also lithographically printed. This lithograph in vivid colors perfectly illustrates the joyful vision of the opera that Chagall had.
