Eighty illustrations, 60 in color, document this most celebrated phase of Chagall's career, during which he was forced by the First World War to remain in Russia, where he remained through the Bolshevik Revolution. The period includes his famous murals for the State Yiddish Chamber Theatre in Moscow. Accompanying essays discuss such topics as Chagall and the theatre, and the quest for a Jewish art in revolutionary Russia.
