WHO IS MARC CHAGALL?
Marc Chagall was a Jewish artist, born in Russia in 1887 but who lived most of his life in France. Most of Chagall’s artwork was religious in nature, and his style was very vibrant and colorful.
Chagall created thousands of artworks using a variety of media, but his stained glass was one of his major contributions to the art world. This medium of art allowed Chagall to really embrace
his work with bright colors.
