Marc Chagall (1887-1985) is one of the most popular artists of the 20th century, and his work is collected by every major museum in the world. His personal and unique imagery is often suffused with exquisite poetic inspiration.
He is known and loved for his combination of fantasy and spirituality with a modernist style-even as styles shifted from Cubism to Suprematism to Surrealism, his work remained distinctive.
From his early masterpieces made in Russia to his Yiddish art theater murals, this book acts as a guide to the iconography to Chagall's bestloved paintings and to his less familiar works from the Russian theater years.
