The artwork, titled “Bushes and village (sketch to vitrage in Chapelle des Cordeliers in Sarrebourg),” was created by Marc Chagall in 1976 in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, France. It belongs to the Naïve Art (Primitivism) movement and falls under the genre of design.
The artwork is a preliminary sketch intended for a vitrage (stained glass) installation in the Chapelle des Cordeliers in Sarrebourg. It features two arched, window-like panels containing delicate, nature-themed drawings. The forms of bushes and a village are rendered with light, almost ethereal lines and touches of color. The composition expresses a sense of simplicity and tranquility, characteristic of Chagall’s signature Naïve Art style. The whimsical and dream-like quality of the drawing suggests an intimate connection to the themes of nature and pastoral life.
