Description:
|
|
In the left foreground is King David, playing his lyre. At the bottom is a view of Jerusalem and the ancient citadel named "The Tower of David". The colorful geometric shapes and the embracing couple immediately recall the technique of collage, one of the techniques Chagall used to prepare sketches for his painted compositions.
