Description:
|
In the early 1950s Chagall experimented with painted ceramics, to which he applied his familiar motifs. (In this work, the village, bird and blue and yellow donkey). During a decade he produced 220 ceramic works. Chagall, unlike most artists, was not content with decorating pieces made by professional potters. He himself molded his clay and created original forms. This work combines portions that are wheel-thrown and hand-built, engraved (sgraffito) with a knife and dry-point, and painted with glazes.
