A luminous example of Chagall's graphic work, The Mountebanks captures the wandering performers and dreamlike figures that populate so much of his visual world. Printed by the legendary Fernand Mourlot in 1963 and catalogued in both Cramer and Mourlot's definitive references, this lithograph reflects Chagall's mastery of color, line, and poetic imagination — a work that is at once intimate and theatrically alive.
