Rare exhibition catalog from the 1976 Chagall exhibition '6 Livres Illustres' at Galerie Patrick in Geneva, Switzerland. Octavo, original illustrated wrappers as issued containing 6 black-and-white plates. One of 1500 copies singed by Marc Chagall on the verso of the front wrapper. In near fine condition. A nice example.
Art critic Robert Hughes referred to Chagall as "the quintessential Jewish artist of the twentieth century" (though Chagall saw his work as "not the dream of one people but of all humanity"). According to art historian Michael J. Lewis, Chagall was considered to be "the last survivor of the first generation of European modernists". For decades, he "had also been respected as the world's preeminent Jewish artist".
