Marc Chagall often portrayed himself in his works, always in a non-realistic way. For him, depicting the state of mind was paramount.
This self-portrait is a symphony of strong colors and geometric shapes, prompting reflection at a historical moment where the importance of the individual seems to have faded in comparison to the importance of the collective as a whole.
A masterpiece where the painter perfectly intertwines Cubism and Fauvism.
