New research shows that for much of Russian-French Modernist painter Marc Chagall's life, which took him from a tiny village in rural Russia to St. Petersburg, Paris and New York, he remained remarkably faithful to eight pigments in his colorful works.

In this handout photograph made available by Martin Lang in London Monday, Feb. 3, 2014, a painting owned by him is seen. When British collector Martin Lang submitted the painting to a French committee, he was hoping to find out if it was an authentic work by Marc Chagall. But not only did the Chagall Committee declare the painting a forgery, it said Lang's painting should be burned under strict French laws that protect artists' works. Lang, 63, said Monday he was frustrated with the decision but he still hopes the painting will be returned to him. &quot;They're holding on to it. It is bizarre ... it's almost vindictive,&quot; Lang told the BBC. &quot;It's basically my property. I just couldn't understand why the committee would be so draconian.&quot; The businessman bought the watercolor of a reclining nude woman for 100,000 pounds (US$170,000) in 1992, believing it to be an authentic Chagall dating from around 1909 to 1910.
