Telling the life story of Marc Chagall, the famous American writer Jonathan Wilson boldly and originally interprets the most famous paintings of the brilliant artist, using the latest research by biographers, including Chagall's correspondence translated by B. Harshav. The book tells not only about relationships with wonderful people and their participation in the artist’s life, but also about how external events were refracted in Chagall’s work. The author paints a very complex, contradictory, but extremely interesting image of a person who completely devoted himself to art.
