Monte Carlo, André Sauret, 1975

£10,000

A fine example of this limited edition of Shakespeare's The Tempest with 50 original lithographs after Chagall.

At the age of 88, Chagall produced this evocative interpretation of The Tempest. The illustrations add a new dimension to a much-loved text and combine Shakespeare's themes of magic and illusion with his own otherworldly images. Just as The Tempest was one of Shakespeare's final plays, this wonderful series of lithographs marks a 'farewell' to Chagall's frenetic creative output for such large-scale projects.
