"Is art as in life, everything is possible if, deep down, there is love."
Marc Chagall
Built in Nice during the artist's lifetime, at the instigation of André Malraux, since 1973 the Musée national Marc Chagall, has been home to the world's biggest collection of works by this true multidisciplinary genius who produced remarkable art not only in painting but in sculpture, pastel, mosaic, stained-glass and etching. This book surveys the resulting body of work and its rich texture of personal memories, biblical references, tales and dreams. Illustrated by archives photographs recording the artist's career, it also includes detailed commentaries on the masterpieces held by the museum, notably the Biblical message and Song of songs cycles.
