Why It Matters
An edition of 50 places this in Chevrier's more accessible collector tier while retaining scarcity. The 'fallen flag' title adds a layer of social commentary uncommon in the series, giving the work interpretive depth that distinguishes it from her purely introspective compositions.
Collector Perspective
At 30 by 24 inches and an edition of 50, this is an approachable format for collectors entering the Cages series. Confirm signature, numbering out of 50, and the 300 gram Moab stock. Its 2019 date places it just before Chevrier's very active 2020 output, a useful anchor point in a collection.
Historical Context
The 'fallen flag' motif introduces a note of political fatigue into the Cages vocabulary, aligning with the socially conscious currents in contemporary print art. Dated 2019, it precedes Chevrier's suffrage-centennial collaborations of 2020 and reflects the series' capacity to absorb broader civic themes.
