Marc Chagall.
Éditions de la Revue Verve, Tériade, Paris [n.d. 1956].
Coloured lithograph. 355 x 260mm (14 x 10¼"). Some creasing in bottom left corner.
A vibrant and abstract portrait of David and Bathsheba, blended into one face, by Marc Chagall (1887-1985). Chagall was a prominent artist of the early modernist movement and thought of highly by contemporaries such as Picasso. Throughout his career Chagall centred a duality of Jewish and Christian themes, what he insisted was a 'universal message' and his work included motifs of prophets, angels and the story of Moses, in his first bible cycle.
