Autour de la tribu de Lévi
1959
"Autour de la tribu de Lévi" demonstrates Chagall's characteristic blend of Jewish religious symbolism and modernist abstraction, executed in his distinctly expressive style across multiple media on card stock. The work reflects the artist's lifelong preoccupation with biblical themes and the tribe of Levi, a subject that held deep cultural and spiritual significance in his artistic practice. Through the combination of gouache, ink, pen, and pencil, Chagall creates a layered composition that merges figural and abstract elements, typical of his approach to translating Jewish heritage into visual form.
