Edition of 5000 copies (unnumbered). Hand-signed Marc Chagall. Marc Chagall designed this lithograph as a poster for the French Tourist Office's international advertising campaign for Nice and the Côte d'Azur. Printed by Mourlot, Paris, and published by the French Tourist Office. Mourlot catalogue raisonné 350 The Bay of Angels (La Baie des Anges) (1962) by Marc Chagall is a vibrant lithograph created as a poster for an international advertising campaign promoting Nice and the Côte d’Azur. Commissioned by the French Tourist Office, the print was produced at the renowned Atelier Mourlot, one of the most influential print workshops of the twentieth century. The composition displays Chagall’s dreamlike visual language. A mermaid with flowing red hair floats above the Mediterranean landscape, holding a large bouquet of flowers. Below her, a serene coastal scene unfolds with palm trees, a fish swimming in shallow water, and a luminous sun rising over the sea. The dominant blue tones evoke the atmosphere of the Riviera, while touches of red, green, and yellow add vibrancy and movement. Chagall blends fantasy with landscape, transforming the coastline of Nice into a poetic vision filled with symbolism and color. The whimsical figure and floating elements reflect the artist’s characteristic themes of love, imagination, and harmony between humans and nature.

What is avant-garde?
Avant-garde refers to innovative and experimental ideas in the arts that challenge established norms and conventions. Originating from the French term for advance guard, it describes both the movement and the artists who push the boundaries of creativity, often exploring new techniques, forms, and concepts. The avant-garde has been a driving force in various art movements throughout history, such as Dadaism, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism, continually reshaping the landscape of art and culture.
