Meyer Shapiro called Chagall (1887-1985) one of the greatest
religious artists of all time, and these lithographs
show why: powerful drawing, intense colors, and,
most of all, compassion for the characters.

In 1930 he was commissioned by Vollard, a Paris
art dealer, to produce a series of illustrations
based upon Bible stories. Chagall travelled to
Palestine in search of inspiration, but the project
was a lengthy one, interrupted by World War II,
and was not eventually completed until the early
1950s.
Currently on show at New York's Jewish Museum is a show dedicated to the time during WWII & how it influenced his art.
