Questions about this Print

The size you set is the printed image, the part you see once the canvas is stretched. Beyond that size we add 1.2 in of blank canvas on every side, at no extra cost, so the stretcher bars have something to grip. A 14.6 × 21.7 in print therefore arrives as 17 × 24 in. Both numbers are shown in Your Selection above and change with the slider.

Yes. The slider covers every size up to 28 × 41.3 in, always in the proportions of the original. If you need something larger, or a size that has to fit a frame you already own, write to us with the title and the dimensions and we will tell you what is possible. Every print is made to order, so there is usually a way.

Because the original is an oil painting on canvas. We match the print medium to the original: oil paintings go on canvas, works on paper go on fine art paper. Our canvas is natural cotton, 400 g/m² Canvas, acid-free and pH neutral, and its woven texture gives the most natural impression of Chagall's original oil painting. The finish is satin/gloss, which keeps the depth of the dark tones the way varnish does on a painting in a museum; a matte canvas looks dull and pale next to it. More about our print media.

Start with the original, which measures 190.5 × 283.5 cm. A print at or near that size reads the way the artist judged it. Printing smaller is easy; enlarging a small original changes its character. For the wall, above a sofa or a sideboard aim for two thirds to three quarters of the furniture width, and hang the center at eye level. Cut paper to size and tape it to the wall before you order. The original is in a public collection. Full size guide.

About the Painting

In "Adam and Eve Expelled from Paradise" (1961), Marc Chagall crafts a vivid and dreamlike tableau, channeling his unique vision into a tale as old as humanity itself. The painting pulsates with Chagall's signature surrealist flair, a vibrant symphony of color and emotion that brings the biblical story to life.

At the center of the composition, the celestial figure of an angel dominates, thrusting Adam and Eve out of Eden with a stern gesture. This angel, with its dynamic posture and flowing robe, embodies divine authority, yet is rendered with a grace that softens the harshness of expulsion. The background, a lush, swirling sea of greens and blues, suggests the untamed beauty of the lost paradise, teeming with fantastical creatures that evoke the richness of Chagall's imagination.

To the right, Adam and Eve cling to one another, their bodies intertwined in a poignant embrace of shared fate. Eve's red cloak starkly contrasts with the surrounding hues, symbolizing both the sin and the passion that led to their fall. Their expressions, tender and sorrowful, capture the complex mixture of regret and love as they face an uncertain future.

Above and around them, Chagall populates the canvas with an array of symbolic elements—ethereal birds, a radiant sun-like orb, and mythical beasts—all rendered in his characteristic, almost whimsical style. These elements don't just populate the scene; they animate it, turning the static act of expulsion into a living, breathing narrative.

Chagall's use of color is, as always, extraordinary. The luminous yellows and deep blues create a sense of otherworldliness, while the contrasting red and greens anchor the scene in emotional reality. It's a painting that invites endless contemplation, each glance revealing new details and deeper meanings. In "Adam and Eve Expelled from Paradise," Chagall doesn't just depict a story—he immerses us in its emotional and spiritual landscape, leaving us to ponder the fragile beauty of lost innocence.
