Sara et Abimélech, from Dessins pour La Bible
A luminous and dreamlike lithograph rendered in Chagall's signature poetic style, this work depicts the biblical encounter between Sara and Abimelech with swirling figures bathed in rich, jewel-toned hues of blue, violet, and gold. Chagall's deeply personal interpretation of the sacred text merges spiritual intensity with folkloric tenderness, as floating forms and expressive gestures evoke both the divine and the deeply human. Printed on fine Vélin d'Arches paper with full margins, this work exemplifies the technical refinement and visionary imagination that distinguished his celebrated *Dessins pour La Bible* series.
