Visions de Paris 1953

This is Marc Chagall’s vision of Paris, painted with dreamy strokes of blue, green, and purple, where reality bends into the whimsical. Imagine Chagall, brush in hand, coaxing this cityscape into existence, not from observation, but from memory and feeling. There’s a floating figure, a spectral face, and those iconic Parisian buildings rendered with naive charm. The paint isn’t trying to hide itself; it’s there, present, like the texture of a dream. I can almost feel the artist’s hand moving, a dance between intention and accident. The green reminds me of Matisse, of course. It's like they're having a conversation, these colors, across time. A conversation that painting allows. Each gesture, a little story, each color a feeling. It’s a reminder that painting isn’t just about seeing, it’s about feeling, thinking, and dreaming.
