Jackie Wullschlager has written a masterpiece to complement her subjects masterpiece after masterpiece. An amazing undertaking that reads like a novel. The color reproductions are superb. This is a book that could change your life. Once you meet Chagall youll never be the same. Thank you. - H3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Insightful and richly detailed; but occasionally dullBy Michael SquiresJackie Wullschlagers new biography provides an extraordinary look at the painters evolution; from a humble Jewish village in Russia; to chaotic St. Petersburg during the revolution; to full flower in Paris and beyond. The depth of detail is astonishing; the illustrations and color plates beautifully illustrate the many stages of Chagalls artistic development; and Wullschlager dissects Chagalls marriages in loving detail; teasing out the complexities of dependence and power that bound (but also enriched) them. There is a fine early example of Chagall telling a buyer that he didnt price his paintings; then asking Bella to negotiate as the buyer (looking in a mirror) noticed Chagall signalling the price to his wife. Much later it fell to Vava; his third wife; "to be the hard exterior front while Chagall played her soft; helpless companion" (504). He always put his inner creative life first.I like books that are succinct; that use one example or one quotation rather than two or three; and that offer crisp analysis instead of restatement. I skimmed many pages in the books first half; where the author is finding her direction. Most readers will wish that Knopf had hired a senior editor to go over the book and; especially in the first half; to mark deletions for the author to consider.That said; this biography incisively shows the horrendous dislocations that an artist risks in abandoning his homeland and his religion; and the ways in which nostalgia for the past became one of Chagalls enduring themes even as he broke new ground in Paris and Vence.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
