Marc Chagall’s paintings of the 1980s form the final chapter of his long and celebrated career. Living in Saint-Paul-de-Vence in the South of France, he continued to paint until his death in 1985, at the age of 97. His late works bring together many of the subjects that defined his art, reimagined with a lighter, more dreamlike quality.

Deep blues, particularly cobalt and ultramarine, dominate many of these paintings, creating a luminous, nocturnal atmosphere. His late brushwork is fluid and delicate, giving his figures a sense of weightlessness and movement. Rather than introducing entirely new themes, Chagall returned to his familiar imagery of lovers, bouquets, animals, and memories of his native Vitebsk, weaving them together in poetic and deeply personal compositions.

The painting is currently on view at the gallery at 66 St James’s Street, London.

Executed in 1905, Coco mangeant sa soupe is an intimate portrait of Renoir’s youngest son, Claude, affectionately known as “Coco.”

Coco is captured absorbed in the simple ritual of eating his soup. Renoir’s warm palette and fluid brushwork bring tenderness and luminosity to this quiet scene of family life.

Painted in Cagnes-sur-Mer in the South of France, the work reflects Renoir’s later style, shaped by the light, colour, and atmosphere of the French Riviera.

Executed in 1978, Visionary Wave Crest is an evocative example of Yayoi Kusama’s celebrated Infinity Net series, a body of work that has become central to her practice. First introduced in New York in 1959, the Infinity Nets marked Kusama’s breakthrough, establishing her distinctive language through dense, repeating patterns.

Kusama returned to Japan in 1975 and took up residence at the SAYWA Hospital in Tokyo, where she has continued to live and work.

Created using enamel and acrylic on canvas, the work has a unique and impressive texture. The painting is currently on view at the gallery this summer.

Eugène Boudin and Camille Pissarro were prominent nineteenth-century French artists, both of whom frequently depicted coastal and riverside scenes.

Pissarro’s Bords de l’Oise, Environs de Pontoise was painted in 1872. Having first visited Pontoise in the 1860s, he returned in 1872 and made the area his home for the following decade. The Oise and its surrounding landscape became recurring subjects, and during his time there he produced around 300 paintings.

From early in his career, Boudin repeatedly painted the ports of Le Havre, Trouville, Honfleur, and Deauville. He was particularly attentive to changing skies and atmospheric effects, qualities that Charles Baudelaire famously described as Boudin’s “meteorological beauties”. The port of Trouville exemplifies his sensitivity to the ever-changing light and atmosphere.

Camille Pissarro’s Verger à Saint-Ouen-l’Aumône en hiver is a testament to the artist’s enduring connection to the rural landscape and his mastery of the Impressionist technique. Painted in 1877, the work captures a serene moment in the French countryside, specifically depicting a winter orchard – a frequent motif that Pissarro painted during different seasons and in varying weather conditions.

Pissarro completed the work in the town of Pontoise, where he moved in 1872 and stayed for a decade. During this period, his life and work became closely linked to the town and in later life, he remembered the area particularly fondly. The rural solitude of Pontoise attracted the likes of Cézanne and Gauguin who came there to work alongside Pissarro in 1877 - the same year that Verger à Saint-Ouen-l’Aumône en hiver was painted.
