About the painting. This, perhaps, the most famous of all Chagall's paintings has experienced virtually everything the life of a famous painting could have thrown at it - from the people's lack of understanding, to their ecstatic admiration, to their amazement, to their mockery, and finally, to their recognition of the painting as one of the great masterpieces of the modern age. Above the City celebrates Chagall's relationship with the love of his life, Bella - their passionate love, the happiness of a long-awaited meet after the difficult time apart, and their farewells to their beloved city. This Russian lacquer miniature print box does great justice to Chagall and his great work.

Box size: 4 х 6.3'' (11 x 16 cm).
