The self portrait is a fake!!
Hi Francesko. Is it? I found it here: https://www.wikiart.org/en/marc-chagall/self-portrait-with-palette-1917 and here: https://arthive.com/marcchagall/works/224852~Selfportrait_with_palette and can’t seem to find any evidence that it is not. Would you please tell me?

I love Russia
I’m Indian
I’ll be heading out into nature later this morning and although I’ll see some animals and maybe some people, somehow I doubt they’ll look like the ones in this painting.
…still, you never know! 😉
Now that I’m back I can confirm that I didn’t encounter any people or animals like the ones in this painting. Too bad.
🤣🤣🤣
Enjoy!
Marina, Marc Chagall is one of my most favorites. Isn’t it interesting that artists understand the meaning of their calling. When I read Van Gogh, Monet, their focus is about love. The same goes for Marc Chagall, which is embodied in this quote: “In our life there is a single color, as on an artist’s palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love.” The idea that love is a colour has given me something to think about. Sending much love (& colour) your way.
Oh, it is a wonderful quote, indeed and he’s one if my very favorites too.
Love and color your way too, my dearest Rebecca!
LOVE!!!!!

That’s quite a price. Too bad artists can’t get those prices while they are alive.
Indeed, at least the real artists. There are those who will get large sums for say a banana stuck on the wall with duct tape (https://www.gq.com/story/suddenly-the-koons-is-this-100k-banana) or for an …invisible sculpture (https://nypost.com/2021/06/03/artist-sells-invisible-sculpture-for-over-18k/)
That is a sad stake of affairs.
Very sad!
