Marc Chagall : my life, my dream : Berlin and Paris, 1922-1940

Compton, Susan

Marc Chagall : my life, my dream : Berlin and Paris, 1922-1940 / Susan Compton - Munich : Prestel , 1990 - 268 p. : illus. ; 31 cm

Originally published in German, this is the catalog for a recent show in Germany.

While living in Berlin, then Paris, from 1922 to 1940, Chagall learned the technique of etching and received lucrative commissions as a book illustrator. From the hundreds of etchings done during these two decades, Compton has paired 79 black-and-white etchings with colorful paintings and preparatory gouaches, allowing comparison of one medium with another. Clear plates and intelligent text add insight to an often neglected segment of Chagall's oeuvre.
