The museum was created during the lifetime of the artist, with the support of the Minister of Culture André Malraux, and inaugurated in 1973. It houses the series of seventeen paintings illustrating the biblical message, painted by Chagall and offered to the French State in 1966. This series illustrates the books of Genesis, Exodus and the Song of Songs. This print references the episode where David sees Bathsheba bathing (II Samuel, XI, 2-3). Part of the series "Etchings for the Bible" (1930-1939; 1952-1956), which used the technique of aquatint. (Source: WikiArt [website]; https://www.wikiart. org/)
