Hi There,

We are trying to find the name of this painting, which we think is by Marc Chagall, and where it is located if possible.

Thanks!

I've never seen that one, but have you tried the usual sources? There are many books on Chagall that might feature this work?
Also, many of his works were destroyed during his lifetime (but then there wouldn't be a color picture, probably) but even more were sold to private collector's...

It is titled 'Birth' by Marc Chagall [1912] and resides in The Art Institute of Chicago. I would post a link, however, the site seems to be experiencing some problem right now.
