The artwork titled “Lunaria,” created by Marc Chagall in 1967 in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, France, is an oil painting on canvas. It falls under the Naïve Art (Primitivism) movement and depicts a still life scene. The dimensions of the artwork are 100 x 80.9 cm, and it currently resides in a private collection.
The artwork portrays an arrangement of various flora, presented in a seemingly spontaneous yet harmonious composition. On the right, a tall vase holds an assortment of branches adorned with delicate blossoms and foliage, interspersed with red fruits, possibly pomegranates. This floral display takes center stage, extending gracefully towards the left. Below this arrangement, a smaller bouquet of vivid red flowers in a dark vase adds a contrasting depth to the scene. To the far left, a basket brimming with bright yellow lemons hints at the presence of more nature’s bounty. The backdrop reveals subtle details of a window with light streaming through and botanical elements peeking in, enhancing the serene, airy ambiance of the piece.
