The artwork titled “Bushes and Birds (sketch to vitrage in Chapelle des Cordeliers in Sarrebourg)” was created by Marc Chagall in 1976 in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, France. This piece is part of the Naïve Art (Primitivism) movement and falls under the genre of design.
The artwork, a preparatory sketch for vitrages, showcases a delicate interplay of natural elements and wildlife. It depicts two arched panels, each featuring a stylized bird amidst foliage and branches. The use of soft, fluid lines alongside a restrained color palette emphasizes the ethereal quality of the scene. Highlights of green and yellow add a touch of vibrancy, enhancing the organic feel of the composition. This design not only serves as a testament to Chagall’s distinctive artistic vision but also to his ability to harmonize nature and form in a minimalist yet evocative manner.
