English: Marc Chagall (English pronunciation: /ʃəˈɡɑːl/, shə-GAHL;[1] Yiddish: מאַרק שאַגאַל; Russian: Марк Заха́рович Шага́л; 1887–1985), was a Russian French artist, associated with several key art movements and was one of the most successful artists of the 20th century. He created unique works in virtually every artistic medium, including painting, book illustrations, stained glass, stage sets, ceramic, tapestries and fine art prints. Chagall's haunting, exuberant, and poetic images have wide appeal, with art critic Robert Hughes referring to him as "the quintessential Jewish artist of the twentieth century."
