"Grandfather's House" is a 1922 lithograph by Marc Chagall, known for his vibrant colors and fantastical imagery, depicting a house with a figure perched on the rooftop, seemingly holding a pail, and another figure at the bottom of the stairs, reaching up towards the sky. This artwork is considered to be a representation of Chagall's childhood home in Vitebsk, Russia, and his nostalgic connection to his family and heritage. The simple lines and subtle shading of the lithograph create a sense of warmth and intimacy, inviting viewers to reflect on their own memories and connections to their roots.
