Chagall

If you were only going to buy one book on Chagall (a brief, affordable version) this is it. It covers enough of the artist's life, with good examples of his work and it's very readable for the novice as well as informative for even art historians (with plenty of good cross-referencing)... It does site Chagall's autobiography from 1922 - so there's some insight into Marc's subconscious and explanations for his use of certain imagery in his paintings. This was my first purchase of a book from this series and I will purchase more of them - which feature other artists...

Chagall is given to us in this book the way I have always thought he should be. When an artist can sing, sum up, let our eyes see what his heart knows in its rhythm, he gives us himself and more than himself.....the author lets me rejoice in that.MaryTruesdell

Of course I'm not finished with this book; you don't 'finish' books like this; you go back to them. It's a fine, informative book on Chagall who is one of my favorites.

I know and love the work of Marc Chagall. This is a poor representation of his work and life, but most importantly the book is very small. It was impossible to tell this from the product advertisement. I have been an Amazon customer for many years and have always been happy with my purchases but this is most certainly a rather expensive exception.

Wow, just terrific. Wonderful plates and insightful and revealing text. Another winner from Taschen and Ingo Walther.

The Marc Chagall book is excellent. It has great photos of his most famous paintings, and is very reasonably priced for those of us on a budget!

Buyer Beware... I shoulda known better.The 3 Chagall paintings I'm researching were NOT even mentioned.I guess I can tear up some of the pages, and use as kindling.Maybe this Kindle-thing might help.

This is really a good book as it covers all I wanted to know. It is well written!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Loved this beautiful book which covered Chagall's life in a neat & concise way.The illustrations of his work were far more extensive than I could have imagined in such a small book.This was great value compared with many expensive art books.If you love Chagall this is the book for you.

Pleasantly surprised, nice paperback with wonderful pictures and descriptions.

I love Chagall so I am a bit bias. A good combination of images and text.

Prompt delivery. Sold as advertised . Excellent book

Good item quick delivery
