He survived pogroms, fled the Russian Revolution, escaped Nazi-occupied France, and lost his beloved wife. And through all of it, Marc Chagall kept painting.
Born in 1887 in Vitebsk, Belarus, Chagall grew up in a Hasidic Jewish family in a small shtetl. That world, with its fiddlers, floating lovers, Torah scrolls, and Shabbat candles, never left him. Even after decades in Paris and New York, his canvases remained soaked in Jewish memory, longing, and faith.
Chagall once said: "In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love." His art was not just beautiful. It was an act of Jewish survival.
