The Tribe of Simeon, from Twelve Maquettes of Stained Glass Windows for Jerusalem
This 1964 lithograph by Marc Chagall represents one of twelve maquettes he created for stained glass windows commissioned for Jerusalem, showcasing his characteristic blend of modernist color theory and Jewish spiritual imagery. The work was printed in colors by the renowned Parisian publisher Mourlot and numbered from an edition of 150 on Arches paper, measuring 755 by 525 millimeters. Chagall's design for the Tribe of Simeon exemplifies his innovative approach to translating biblical narratives into luminous, abstract compositions intended for ecclesiastical architectural contexts.
