The seller, janine730, Hereford, United Kingdom:
It is drawn on cartridge paper - slightly marked on the reverse - but overall in excellent condition. Possibly a drawing of his nubile teenage lover Marie-Therese? An aggressive and sumptuous piece of work. Every vigorous stroke and stab of his pastel seems to speak of his haste to finish his drawing and sink himself into those voluptuous and fleshy curves !! I cannot guarantee the authenticity - unfortunately - because the work has lost its detailed provenance; but it was bought by my grandfather on a trip to Northern Spain, just before the second world war. The work will be sent unframed, as the glass is too likely to break and damage the work.

Bought by the sellers grandfather!
We love these wonderful stories.

The seller, the well-known art faker, pavarotti1969, France:
I sell an incredible original painting on canvas signed MARC CHAGALL, that I have in my own collection for some time now. The painting is absolutely beautifull and represents a married couple with a Paris landscape on the background along the river. I will give to the winner a BILL OF SALE / PROVENANCE paper that I will sign and where I will indicate the name of the previous french collector from whom it was bought and the date of purchase. (PROVENANCE) For confidentiality reasons, I cannot state it on ebay right now.

This "Chagall" is not the first falsification delivered by pavarotti1969.
