Russian-born artist Marc Chagall was a pioneer of modernism. Picasso proclaimed that after Matisse, "Chagall will be the only painter left who understands what colour really is.”Daphnis & Chloé, the latest NGC@WAG collaboration, features 42 lithograph prints that showcase Chagall’s unique style. Widely considered the crowning achievement of his career as a printmaker, the series depicts the semi-erotic tale written by the Greek poet, Longus. Chagall created these colourful pieces in the 1950s, inspired by the great love of his life, Valentina.
