This rare proof was handpicked by Marc Chagall and signed by him outside the black and white edition—the only known example in a private hand purchased directly from the Chagall Estate. The facets are edged and a bit more pronounced compared to the book edition, with slight differences in printing.

This work reflects scenes from Chagall's childhood in a Belarusian-Jewish village, incorporating elements from folklore, mythology, and religious themes into his work, reflecting his Jewish heritage. This piece captures one's imagination to understand the catalyst of his vision.

Chagall's style evolved throughout his career, maintaining his distinctive, whimsical, poetic approach to art. He remains one of the most celebrated artists of the 20th century, known for his contributions to modern art and his ability to capture viewers' imagination with enchanting imagery.
