The Cock. Chagal Mark. Fragment. Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza. Oil on canvas. 81 x 65.5 cm. Chagal Mark. Vitebsk, 1887 - St.Paul-de-Vence, 1985. Marc Zakharovich Chagall was a Russian-French artist. An early modernist, he was associated with several major artistic styles and created works in virtually every artistic format, including painting, book illustrations, stained glass, stage sets, ceramic, tapestries and fine art prints. Chagall depicts a loving embrace between the animal and a female figure that is generally identified as a harlequin. The courting theme extends to two other pairs of lovers who embrace in the background. The cockerel held a symbolic meaning for Chagall, for as Franz Meyer pointed out, from early on it “has played a part in religious rites as the embodiment of the forces of sun and fire” and was furthermore a common motif in Russian lubki. Lastly, the resplendent colour, which foreshadows the chemistry of the colour of his final compositions, is, as Susan Compton points out, undoubtedly related to Chagall’s friendship with the Delaunays.
