Marc Chagall at age 33. Chagall was a Jewish Russian painter-poet born 7 July 1887 who excelled at expressionism. He painted “collections of inner images" his entire life and died in 1968.

     Marc Chagall, born under the sun sign Cancer, is often compared with Paul Klee since both are classified as “painter-poets” who believed color and design were the same concept. Rather than considering this a positive characteristic, some so-called experts cite it as a shortcoming in his art work while also accusing him of being neither “modern” nor “contemporary” and infatuated with religious, symbolic, literary, and folkloristic ideas. Chagall disregarded criticism and was an individualist who always went his own way.
     Chagall frequently did repetitions, replicas and reconstructions of his earlier paintings. He loved to do French landscapes as well as still-life paintings of flowers but his talent 
was broad and varied. Although considered an expressionist painter, he did ceramic murals such as the baptistery of the Church of Notre Dame on the Plateau d'Assy but he also did mosaics, bronze ware and marble sculptures, illustrated books, stained glass, and created tapestries for the Parliament of Israel.
