Le Clown avec des Fleurs unites two of Chagall’s most cherished motifs — the clown and the bouquet — in a composition that radiates warmth, color, and gentle humor. Flowers for Chagall were never merely decorative; they carried associations of love, celebration, and the beauty of the everyday. Combined with the clown’s tragicomic presence, the result is a work of quiet emotional complexity. Printed by Fernand Mourlot in 1963, this lithograph is one of the most immediately appealing pieces in the Lithographe II portfolio.
