Pdf / English / 1984 / 260 pag / 54 MB

A distinguished addition to a continuing series on Marc Chagall's art, Chagall Lithographs V places all of the lithographs created between 1974 and 1979 in one superbly produced volume containing 305 illustrations, 202 in color and
103 in black and white. Along with an essay and commentary by Robert Marteau, the volume includes a catalogue of all the Chagall lithographs engraved by Charles Sorlier. Marc Chagall is the last of the great masters of twentieth century art, who has consecrated more of his genius to the art of lithography than any other painter. "It seems to me," he wrote, "that something would have been missing from my life if,
at a certain moment, apart from color, I had not taken an interest in lithography and engraving. It is one thing to draw quite well, another to be able to turn one's hand to the subtleties of lithography."
