My cousin told me of a restaurant in Paris, and I believe he said that Chagall had painted the beams or walls of the restaurant. The name was something like Le Coupele, but I can%26#39;t find anything online. Does anyone know what restaurant this could be? Thanks.

It is probably La Coupole, Boulevard du Montparnasse.
|||
The pillars at La Coupole were painted by nieghborhood artists when the cafe was first converted from a coal bin to the largest restau in Paris.
Chagall did paint a mural on the ceiling of the Opera Garnier. Perhpas your cousin is just a tad confused.
|||
It%26#39;s not a restaurant but I believe the ceiling of the Opera Garnier was also painted by Chagall. There are tours to visit and you might find it interesting.
|||
With a bit of Googling, I found several references to Chagall having painted La Coupole as well as the Opera. Of course, I also found several large grains of salt.
