Description: Folio. [8] 23 [1]pp. Original color-illustrated stiff white wraps with black lettering on cover and spine. Fourteen Chagall renderings, thirteen of them offset reproductions of lithographs and one original color lithograph (double page 12/13). Twelve color, one b/w offset reproduction. English translation and illustration and Meaght advertisements on eight same size pages laid in. "To breathe, to paint, to invent for Chagall is not, today, to create icons or inopportune idols in iron and brimstone - but it is simply to go towards dawn and the origin of things - to recognize and to communicate to us the prodigy of each and every day's new shining dew." (Jacques Dupin, translated by Philip Adams). This is not the edition of 50 copies on vellum arches paper that were signed and numbered by the artist. Very light wear along edges of wraps.
