Description:
|
In the early 1950s Chagall experimented with painted ceramics, to which he applied his familiar motifs, for example The Betrothed (h. 318 mm, 1957; priv. col., see Haftmann, p. 34). 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. In this work he took a wheel-thrown vase and cut away the back, engraved it (sgraffito) with a knife, painted it with oxides and glazes, and added a hand and figurine of a goat to the base.
