Chagall

Part of the Taschen art books this is one of the most comprehensive collections of Chagall work. A must for every Chagall aficionado.

It's easy to love Chagall and still underestimate him. It's easy to think of him as primarily a folk artist. He was not just that and this book gives plenty of evidence. While infused with myth, Chagall was a virtuoso--conscious and sophisticated. He was master of a number of different styles (not to mention, different arts). I've looked at other collections of Chagall. Perhaps there are better, but I didn't find any. Definitely none this good in this price-range. This book presents many, many gorgeous, high quality, full-page color prints. The text, which I've only looked at here and there so far, has been well written and aided appreciation of the work. I find printing errors in my copy--light smears running vertically up and down the center of several pages, but they are not so intrusive that I want to return the book and wait for another copy which may or may not have the same marks.

After viewing the book I ordered for my husband, he and I loved it so much, I ordered another for my sister-in-law who also absolutely loved the pictures and stories about one of our favorite artists. It makes a great gift for any Chagall fan.

This is the most wonderful book about Chagall I've ever seen. The colorful and beautiful illustrations made me so exciting. The colors are fantastic compared with other books about Chagall. I recommend this book for any Chagall fan confidently. Though it has something to be desired because of being written in Spanish instead of English, this is only for you!

This is an extraordinary book for every Chagall fan. The quality of illustrations is just wonderful, and if you had only one book to buy on Chagall, this is the one! Don't worry, its not heavy at all; in fact, I would have added more and more pages of never-been-seen work of this incredible artist. The illustrations are colorful, vivid and beautiful, and the biography is very well written and complete. Strongly recommended!
