by Franz Meyer ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A
Chagall's steadily increasing popularity will heighten the response for this handsome portrait of the artist and his work and the extensive interpretation given by his son-in-law, Dr. Meyer. Dr. Meyer has provided an understanding of his total oeuvre, the chronology of its development, the correlation of the subjective and objective facets, the many motifs, and of course the intense color, imagery, playful phantasmagoria and symbolism which are so much a part of it. Along with photographs of the artist and the family, there are many black and white sketches, reproductions- a total of 1250 illustrations of which 53 are full color plates. Bibliography, notes, a list of Chagall's exhibitions, and a thorough documentation of names, places and titles appended.
