Marc Chagall on Art and Culture

"[Marc Chagall on Art and Culture and Marc Chagall and His Times] represent important contributions to the fields of art history, twentieth-century history, and Russian studies, and Marc Chagall and His Times in particular will, I suspect, be a standard work for those studying Chagall's life for years to come."--Canadian Journal of History/ Annales canadiennes of d'histoire
