This etching is from Chagall’s sublime Bible series, commissioned to Chagall by the publisher Ambroise Vollard. Chagall worked on the plates throughout the 1930s, during a time of economic uncertainty. By 1934, Vollard suspended his financial support as he weathered the Depression, but Chagall continued his project. By 1939 the first 66 plates were completed, with the latter 39 already begun. In 1952 Chagall returned to the 39 unfinished plates and by 1956 the suite was completed.
The final 105 etchings, characterised by an exquisite interweaving of lines hatched, scratched, and scored, are thought to be Chagall’s greatest and most personal work as a printmaker.
Wooden frame entirely handmade by Franco Ristori Artisan Workshop, Florence, Italy.
