From the beginning, Marc Chagall did not see things the ways others did. His village in Russia where he grew up filled him with images. He began to draw and paint, and everything he drew and painted was based on his feelings. He begged his mother to let him take lessons and so he went first to St. Petersburg and later to Paris. He returned home to Russia and much later a friend wrote to him from Paris: Chagall's friend told him he was famous in Paris. He continued to paint until he was very old and he was one of the few living artists who was exhibited in the Louvre.
Bright and beautiful and mysterious pictures in this story of the life of Chagall reflect the artist's way of seeing the world.
