Review: Marc Chagall

Marc Chagall Marc Chagall by Jacques Damase
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This slim volume is about two-thirds full color plates bookended by a biographical essay reviewing the fantasy-like, dream-like, expressionist visions of the painter. The life story tells of a career and life between Russia and France during the turbulent, tragic World Wars periods; a sad sense that arises in many of his paintings. Unfortunately, the plates have no captions so you have to flip pages to see titles and years.
