About the Artist

Marc Chagall
Marc Chagall (1887–1985) was a Russian-French modernist artist celebrated for his unique blend of symbolic, dreamlike imagery and vibrant colors. Born in Vitebsk, Russia, Chagall initially absorbed influences from Russian folk art and Fauvism. His distinctive style evolved into a fusion of Cubism, Surrealism, and Expressionism. Notable works like "I and the Village" (1911) exemplify his fantastical narratives and floating compositions. Forced to flee the rise of Nazi Germany, Chagall settled in France and continued to produce art that often incorporated Jewish themes and biblical motifs. His monumental stained glass windows, like those at the Jerusalem Hadassah Medical Center, attest to his versatile talent. Chagall's profound contributions to 20th-century art, spanning painting, stained glass, and ceramics, secured his place as a master of poetic and imaginative storytelling.
