Usually finding a work is a snap once you know the artist, but it didn't turn up in my image search. Nor did it appear among nearly 200 Chagalls at a commercial poster site. It still didn't show in a google image search even after I included the year (1971). But in the web results for that search I found it at an art site devoted to Chagall.

NYC_SKP posted the correct answer below, but he got it via an alternate route--by tracking down the source for the OP images.

I'll see if I can add more hints for #3 and #4 that may help.
