Marc Chagall (1887-1985) was a Russian-French artist known for his vibrant, dreamlike paintings blending Cubism, Fauvism, and Symbolism. His work often depicted scenes from his childhood in Vitebsk, Belarus, infused with Jewish folklore and personal symbolism. Chagall’s art, characterized by floating figures and surreal landscapes, reflects his deep emotional connection to his roots and his belief in the transcendent power of creativity.
