It is the color of love.” —Marc Chagall</p> <p class="textbio">Marc Chagall, who died in 1985 at the age of 97, is without doubt one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. In his paintings he created a unique world full of pathos, poetry, humor and enchantment, drawing on vivid memories of his childhood in what is today Belorus.<br /> Clearly influenced by Byzantine and Russian icon painting and folk art, he wished his own mythological floating figures and symbolism to be interpreted freely, if at all. Chagall loved life.<br> <img height="1" width="30" src="dot_clear.gif">He loved the circus and he loved the Bible, and found the same human paradox in both: joy mixed with tragedy, beauty with sadness. The poetic and biblical inspirations of Chagalls art have always appealed to a broad public, and his works are collected, exhibited and admired all over the world.</span><br> <br> <br> </tr> </table>
