Beautifully vibrant and incredible in scale, this 'Offering of Flowers' through a life-size window overlooking Paris evokes a sense of romanticism and wonder. Chagall is capable of capturing the essence of the city in its magical way of captivating all who visit. With this stunning bouquet, we see elements of the famed Eiffel Tower intertwined with lush flowers of pinks, violets, and canary yellows. The bright blue sky in the background serves to off-set and complement these colors to create a beautifully balanced scene.
