The Comité Marc Chagall has confirmed the authenticity of this work.

Chagall returned continuously to the genre of still life throughout his career, with both fish and flowers being recurring motifs. The former would recall his childhood as the son of a fishmonger, whilst the latter became for Chagall a symbol of love. In Poissons et fleurs, the blooms, fish, vessels and table are rendered in an expressive, almost calligraphic short-hand. The unusually limited colour palette points to a deeper appreciation of Chagall’s skills as not only a great colourist, but also a great draughtsman.
