The artwork titled “Creation of World (study to vitrage at Musée national Message Biblique Marc Chagall in Nice)” was created by Marc Chagall in 1971 in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, France. This piece belongs to the Naïve Art (Primitivism) movement, falls under the genre of design, and measures 28 by 54 centimeters.
The artwork is a preliminary sketch for a stained glass piece, depicting three vertical panels with intricate, simplistic lines characteristic of Chagall’s style. The left panel features a bird and other whimsical shapes, the middle panel illustrates various animals and human-like figures underneath a radiant sun, while the right panel showcases flowing lines and abstract forms, culminating in an ethereal and harmonious composition. The monochromatic sketch serves as a conceptual blueprint for the final glass masterpiece housed at the Musée National Message Biblique Marc Chagall in Nice.
