Description

Inspired by the tough magic of the tales in A Thousand and One Nights, Marc Chagall created a sequence of surprising coloured lithographs to illustrate four of them, perfectly mirroring the vibrant splendour of the Orient, with its mystery and poetry. The unique translation by the British explorer, linguist and Orientalist Sir Richard F. Burton (1821-90) captures the very essence of the tales, and reflects the fascinating revel in gathered by the translator all through his extensive travels.
Marc Chagall: Arabian Nights reproduces the delicate, iridescent colours of The unique lithographs at the side of the texts of the four classic love stories that Chagall decided on.
