SYNOPSIS

Marc Chagall: Posters and Personality
by Joseph K. Foster (text) and Marc Chagall (illustrations)

Contents include:

Title pages
p. 5 Prefatory Note by the author “…no discernable conflict between Chagall the man and Chagall the artist…a rare unanimity between what he says and thinks and paints… After Picasso, he has produced more posters than any other contemporary artist and in this field the forces and influences that have shaped his character are fully reflected. The twenty-six posters in this book, his complete output to date, furnish ample testimony of this.”
pages 7-16 Text discussion of Chagall and his work, with references to the plates
page 17 – “The Plates”
followed by 26 full-page, full-colour illustrations of Chagall’s exhibition posters, each approx. 10×14 inches
Each is identified by Plate number, ie. Plate 1 through Plate 26. Blank on reverse, suitable for framing.
