Soleil dans le ciel de Saint-Paul Soleil dans le ciel de Saint-Paul Soleil dans le ciel de Saint-Paul (French for "Sun in the sky of Saint-Paul") is a painting in oil on canvas, 73 × 115.5 cm, created in 1983 by Russian-French artist Marc Chagall. It is held in a private collection. The painting depicts the recognisable view of Saint-Paul-de-Vence, one of the oldest medieval towns on the French Riviera, dominated by the church at its top. The work is particularly rich in color and has a very balanced composition. The blue sky above the town contains a large, bright yellow sun as well as various
Shadows and Sun during World War II. Shadows and Sun Shadows and Sun / Ombres et Soleil: Selected Writings (1913-1952) is a comprehensive bilingual collection of the poems of Paul Eluard. Translated by Cicely Buckley and published in 1995 by Oyster River Press, the book is illustrated with the cover art “The dreamer” by Pablo Picasso, and six pen and ink drawings by Picasso, René Magritte, Marc Chagall, and André Lhote. Eluard’s simple language and sensitivity in the early and later love poems, and in the ‘poèmes engagés’ (poems committed to recovering justice for all), earned him the name of “the people’s poet.”
