CHAGALL MARC: (1887-1985) Russian-born French Artist.
A fine A.L.S., Marc Chagall, in Yiddish, one page, 12mo, Paris, 1965, to H. Adam, in Yiddish. Chagall thanks his correspondent for their sympathy and for `your fair article published in the magazine 'Jewish Culture'´, further adding `I appreciate your interest, and how much you heed on art. I see with pleasure that 'Art culture' enables the artist to bring out his inner feelings.´ Accompanied by the original envelope hand addressed by Chagall and signed ('Chagall') by him in the return address to the verso. VGAn early modernist, Chagall was associated with several major artistic styles and created works in virtually every artistic medium ranging from paintings to book illustrations and from stained glass to stage sets. Described as 'the quintessential Jewish artist of the 20th century' (although Chagall himself saw his work as 'not the dream of one people but of all humanity) the artist had two basic reputations, as a pioneer of modernism and as a major Jewish artist. In the 1950s Pablo Picasso remarked 'When Matisse dies, Chagall will be the only painter left who understands what colour really is'.
