Marc Chagall lithograph 1966

This original lithograph by Marc Chagall, “Bezalel et ses deux chérubins dorés” (1966), belongs to one of the artist’s most important graphic cycles inspired by biblical narratives and Jewish heritage.

Created as part of the celebrated series “La Histoire de l’Exode”, published by Léon Amiel in 1966, the work reflects Chagall’s mature graphic language. Executed as an original lithograph on Arches wove paper, the composition combines symbolic figures, vibrant color fields, and spiritual motifs characteristic of Chagall’s late period.

The imagery features Bezalel, the biblical artisan, accompanied by two golden cherubim, rendered through expressive lines and luminous colors. Elements such as the menorah, angelic figures, and sacred symbols evoke themes of faith, creation, and divine inspiration. Chagall’s poetic visual language transforms religious narrative into a deeply personal and universal expression.

This work is signed and numbered (289/300) and remains in very good vintage condition. Original lithographs by Marc Chagall from this period are highly sought after by collectors worldwide and are represented in major museum collections. The piece offers both strong cultural significance and lasting investment value.
