L'Écho. 1961.
Lithograph in colors.
Mourlot 340. Cramer Livres 46. Signed. Copy aside from the edition. On firm wove paper by Arches (with the watermark). 42 x 64 cm (16.5 x 25.1 in). Sheet: 53,5 x 75,5 cm (21 x 29,7 in).
Sheet 33 from the series "Daphnis and Chloé", presumably unnumbered copy from the suite next to the book edition. Printed by Mourlot Frères, Paris, published by Tériade Éditeur, Paris 1961. [SM].
• The series "Daphnis and Chloé" is still the greatest testimony to Chagall's graphic mastery.
• From 1959 to 1961 Marc Chagall illustrated the ancient, bucolic tale of Daphnis and Chloé by Longus for Tériade.
• The bucolic of the literary model is ingeniosuly transferred to Chagall's pictorial language which empasizes the text's pastoral and magical appeal.
