Marc Zakharovich Chagall, 1887-1985, was a Belarussian-Russian-French artist. Chagall oil paintings suggested both Jewish and Christian themes. He synthesized the art forms of Cubism, Symbolism, and Fauvism, and the influence of Fauvism gave rise to Surrealism. He was considered to be the last survivor of the first generation of European modernists and the world's preeminent Jewish artist. He produced windows for the UN, and the Jerusalem Windows in Israel. In 2010, Chagall painting Bestiaire et Musique, was sold for $4.1 million in HongKong.

Marc Zakharovich Chagall, 1887-1985, war ein weißrussisch-russisch-französischer Maler. Judentum und Christentum sind wesentliche Themen seiner Bilder. Seine Kunst kombinierte Elemente des Kubismus, des Symbolismus und des Fauvismus, welcher wiederum maßgeblich auf die Entstehung des Surrealismus einwirkte. Er wird generall als der letzte große Meister der ersten Welle des Modernismus und als einer der wenigen weltbekannten jüdischen Künstler überhaupt angesehen. Für die Vereinten Nationen besorgter er Fenstermalereien und zeichnet auch für die "Jerusalem Windows" in Israel verantwortlich. 2010 wurde Chagalls Malerei „Bestiaire et Musique” für 410,000 Dollar in Hongkong veräußert.

Chagall painter, was born in Vitebsk in 1887. At the time of his birth, population of the city was around 66,000, with half the population being Jewish. A picturesque city of churches and synagogues, it was called "Russian Toledo", after the former cultural center of the Spanish Empire.

In Russia at that time Jewish children were not allowed to attend regular Russian schools or universities due to policies of discrimination. Their movement within the city was also restricted. Marc Chagall therefore received his primary education at the local Jewish religious school, whereChagall windowudied Hebrew and the Bible. At the age of 13 his mother tried to enroll him in a Russian high school and he recalled.
In 1906, painter Chagall moved to St. Petersburg which was then the capital of Russia and the center of the country's artistic life with its famous art schools. He enrolled in a prestigious art school and studied there for two years. By 1907 artist Chagall had begun painting naturalistic self-portraits and landscapes. During 1908 to 1910, Chagall studied under Léon Bakst at the Zvantseva School of Drawing and Painting. While in St. Petersburg he discovered experimental theater and the painting of such artists as Paul Gauguin.

In 1910 Chagall artist moved to Paris to develop his own artistic style. Art historian and curator James Sweeney notes that when Chagall first arrived in Paris, Cubism was the dominant art form and French art was still dominated by the "materialistic outlook of the 19th century." These notions were foreign to Paris at that time, and as a result his first recognition came not from other artists but from poets such as Blaise Cendrars and Guillaume Apollinaire.
During this period, many Marc Chagall art about Paris appeared, and most are lithograph in colors.

Much like Dali, Marc Chagall was a major part of several movements. The differences between the two was that Chagall lacked the flair that Dali exuded on a daily basis. That lack of flair led to no issues at all with him creating some of the best Chagall paintings of his time. Born on July 7th 1887, he was a Russian painter that later became French. Known as a modernist, Chagall didn’t restrict himself to just painting his dreams. He was skilled in book illustrations, stage sets, ceramic, stained glass and even tapestries. Spending all of his career trying to fight the pigeonhole of being considered a Jewish artist, Chagall was much more that and it showed in his mastery of styles. At one point he even founded his own style with a mixture of Eastern European Jewish folk culture. There is a small sampling throughout his career, and truth be told, no one else has done it better. Chagall was so well regarded that fellow artist Picasso respected him even in the 1950’s as a pioneer. While Dali campaigned for his fame by being a celebrity, Chagall gained international fame through merit of his oil painting alone.

Because he missed not being with his fiancée, Bella, "He thought about her day and night", writes Baal-Teshuva, and was afraid of losing her. The painter therefore decided to accept an invitation from a noted art dealer in Berlin to exhibit Marc Chagall painting, his intention being to continue on to Russia, marry Bella, and then return with her to Paris. Marc Chagall took 40 paintings and 160 gouaches, watercolors and drawings to be exhibited.
The October Revolution of 1917 was a dangerous time for Chagall although it also offered opportunity. By then Marc Chagall was one of the Soviet Union's most distinguished artists and a member of the modernist avant-garde, which enjoyed special privileges and prestige as the aesthetic arm of the revolution. The painter was offered a notable position as a commissar of visual arts for the country, but preferred something with a lower profile, and instead took a position as commissar of arts for Vitebsk.

In 1923 Marc Chagall left Moscow to return to France. On his way he stopped in Berlin to recover the many Chagall works he had left there on exhibit ten years earlier, before the war began, but was unable to find or recover any of them. Nonetheless, after returning to Paris Chagall again rediscovered the free expansion and fulfilment which were so essential to him. With all early paintings by Chagall now lost, he began trying to paint from his memories of his earliest years in Vitebsk with sketches and oil paintings.
