Abraham and Sarah
When Chagall met renowned printer, Fernand Mourlot in 1948 at his atelier in Paris, he realized that in lithography he had found the perfect graphic medium for his art. It rapidly became his preferred printing technique due primarily to the possibilities it offered with colour.
Following Tériade’s acquisition of the etched Bible Suite it was suggested that Chagall re-imagine a Bible Series in colour lithography. These lithographs, printed by the great French lithographers Mourlot Frères, were published in 1956. They were met with such critical praise that Chagall produced a further set in 1960.
