Marc Chagall (Russian/French, 1887-1985). "Ruth Aux Pieds De Boaz" (Ruth at the Feet of Boaz) color lithograph, 1960. Publisher: Verve edition. Marc Chagall's "Ruth Aux Pieds De Boaz" (Ruth at the Feet of Boaz) from the series "Dessins Pour La Bible" (Drawings for the Bible). Beloved for his dreamlike compositions that bridged various avant-garde movements (Cubism, Fauvism, Symbolism, and Surrealism), Chagall was famous for his signature motifs such as flying figures, bouquets of flowers, animals, as well as references to peasant life and the Jewish tradition. While many of his contemporaries were driven to pursue pure abstraction or non-objectivity, Chagall was faithful to figurative art, albeit with his signature Modernist twist. Size (sight view): 13.5" L x 10" W (34.3 cm x 25.4 cm) Size (frame): 21.2" L x 17.2" W (53.8 cm x 43.7 cm)
The World Wars would certainly interrupted Chagall's career, prompting the artist to move between Russia, France, and the United States; however, Chagall still managed to exhibit throughout Europe and the U.S. Furthermore, Chagall's work was collected by the National Gallery of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the Tate, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Art Institute of Chicago. In addition, Chagall created stained-glass windows for Hadassah University Medical Center's Abbell Synagogue in Jerusalem, the Saint-Etienne Cathedral in Metz, the United Nations building in New York City, and the St. Stephen Church in Mainz, Germany.
