Marc Chagall was among the most celebrated painters of the 20th century.  He is often associated with the Surrealist movement.  This check was one of two checks issued to Chagall when he was commissioned to create two enormous murals for the foyer of the Metropolitan Opera House's new home at the Lincoln Center in 1966.  The mural are titled, "The Triumph of Music" and "The Sources of Music."  In 2009, the Metropolitan Opera put up both Chagall murals as collateral on a loan.  Your order includes printed reproductions from both the front and back of the check.

This check would look great in an album or display piece.
