Roses et mimosas (Nice et la Côte d'Azur) was created in 1960 during Chagall's final decades in the South of France, the work reflects a mature vision of joy, love, and spiritual reflection. Chagall renders the Côte d’Azur as an emotional state: floating blossoms, symbolic figures, and radiant hues evoke a timeless serenity. The floral motifs, recurring across his late works, speak of rebirth, longing, and divine tenderness.
