"Moses Receiving the Tablets of Law"



Original lithograph in colours by Marc Chagall for his renowned book "The Bible".

In his first Bible cycle of 1956, Chagall, in addition to the kings, archfathers, angels and prophets from the Old Testament, also considered the story of Moses: to it he dedicated a total of 4 motifs in this volume. This is the first one of the series and shows the handing over of the tablets with the ten commandments to Moses from God's hand.

This is  N O T  a mass-produced reprint (offset or grano lithograph from a later "Limited edition") but the original lithograph from Chagalls "Bible I", exactly as referenced in Mourlots catalogue raisonné.

One of 6500 unsigned impressions for the book edition on strong velin paper. In addition, 75 pencil-signed and numbered impressions on Arches wove paper were published.

Remarks:

In 1956, the art critic and publisher Tériade brought out a special issue of the legendary art magazine Revue Verve, which was exclusively devoted to one of Marc Chagalls major themes: The Bible. For this outstanding issue, Chagall composed 18 full-page lithographs in colours and 12 in black and white. For his "Bible I" (4 years later, in 1960, the follow-up issue "Illustrations for The Bible" was published) Marc Chagall focused on characters from the Old Testament such as the Founding Fathers, the Kings, the Prophets and Angels.
