(Untitled) Paris Opera House
This original lithograph on paper after Marc Chagall is untitled, but shows
the Paris Opera House. It was published in the 1965 book, Le Plafond de l'Opera de Paris (The Ceiling of the
Paris Opera House) by Jacques Lassaigne. The colorful image extends to the edges of the paper. This version is not numbered
and not signed. The customary crease from the original book placement is visible down the center of the piece. An inscription
and signature were made on the original plate and are therefore printed on each lithograph. The lithograph was executed
by Charles Sorlier, the artisan who worked with Chagall for several decades and helped produce the majority of Chagall's lithographs.
