The artwork titled “Newlywedds with Eiffel Towel in the Background” is a portrait piece executed in oil on canvas by the artist Marc Chagall in 1983 at Saint-Paul-de-Vence, France. It belongs to the Surrealism art movement and measures 61 x 50 cm. This painting is currently part of a private collection.
In the artwork, the viewer encounters a depiction of a newlywed couple, with the Eiffel Tower subtly gracing the background, suggesting a Parisian setting. The couple is rendered in soft, ethereal hues typical of Chagall’s surrealist style, which blends reality with dreamlike elements. The bride is adorned in a white gown and veil, symbolizing purity and tradition, while the groom, dressed in a dark suit, stands beside her. The scene captures a magical, almost otherworldly atmosphere, emphasized by the luminous sky and the moon overhead. The presence of bright colors and the slightly abstract rendering of forms add to the surreal quality of the painting.
