The Bible

Genesis, Exodus, The Song of Solomon

illustrated by Marc Chagall

Originally published in France, this extensively illustrated, hand-sized volume pairs popular stories from the Old Testament with over 150 of a master painter’s finest works.

Chagall began illustrating the Bible in 1931. It became a lifelong passion. A New York Times review of an exhibit exclaimed that it was “a lively and enriching way for anyone … to become reacquainted with scenes and stories from the Old Testament.”

MARC CHAGALL (1887–1985) was a celebrated artist whose exhibit at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art was the third most popular in the museum’s history.
