クリスティーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (クリスティーズInstagram)「Brimming with vibrant and exuberant color, Marc Chagall's 'La chèvre bleue' depicts a joyful, pastoral scene that captures the influence of the lush countryside of the Côte d'Azur on his oeuvre.⠀ .⠀ The iconic motifs of the blue goat and red rooster harken back to Chagall's childhood in rural Vitebsk, Russia and heighten the idyllic, dream-like quality of this amorous encounter in the foreground. The strong reds and purples lend the painting a distinctively romantic air that alludes to Chagall's belief in the sanctity of romantic love as the most divine human pursuit.⠀ .⠀ The sweeping, gestural technique and swathes of saturated watercolor adds a luminosity akin to stained-glass, further enhancing the spiritually charged nature of Chagall's concept of love.⠀ .⠀ 'La chèvre bleue' comes from the estate of Donald E. Simon, the son of Norton Simon, a billionaire industrialist, philanthropist and art collector who gifted his collection to the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena, CA.⠀ .⠀ Marc Chagall (1887-1985), 'La chèvre bleue'.
