▣ Marc Chagall (Russian, 1887-1985)

 

For Marc Chagall, his art and his life had always been inextricably intertwined. In every period of his career, his paintings, drawings, and prints were powerfully informed and shaped by the events of his life, with different moments and experiences leaving an indelible mark on his creative vision. 

Nowhere is this more evident than in the prevalence of the self-portrait in his art, a subject which he returned to time and again over the course of his long and productive career, each composition providing a revealing insight into his developing sense of artistic and personal identity at important junctures in his life, reflecting the ways in which he wished to be seen by the wider world. <Source : Christie's>
