Those wonderful paintings

Marc Chagall (1887-1985) was a Russian born French painter. Born to a humble Jewish family Chagall passed a childhood steeped in Hasidic culture. His paintings often reflect biblical themes. The series below is based on the Book of Ruth, which resonates with me on many different levels. I'm grateful to Chagall for the color, imagination, artistry, and even the not-so-subtle sensuality he has brought to Ruth's story.
