Thomas David (2) (1967–)

This picture book biography traces the life of artist Marc Chagall through his biographical paintings. Starting in Russia, we transcend through time and place with text that provides a starting point for reading into the paintings. The viewer is presented with beautiful reproductions of Chagall's work, and will find it difficult to turn the page! The text politely takes a back seat to the reproductions, allowing for an enjoyable introduction to the artist. Photos of the artist and his family show more are interspersed with text that is presented in a variety of colors. The end pages include a more thorough chronological biography of the artist's life and a listing of the paintings found in the book that include title, creation date and current location of the piece. A must for art libraries and K-12 school libraries. show less
