Marc Chagall, Belarusian born artist
My collection

Marc Zakharovich Chagall (1887 –  1985) was a Russian-French artist of Belarusian Jewish origin. 

Before World War I, he travelled between Saint Petersburg, Paris, and Berlin. During this period he created his own mixture and style of modern art based on his idea of Eastern European Jewish folk culture. He spent the wartime years in Soviet Belarus, becoming one of the country's most distinguished artists and a member of the modernist avant-garde, founding the Vitebsk Arts College before leaving again for Paris in 1922.
