I love Marc Chagall, especially his windows and challah coverings (reproductions there). Would be nice to know if Anatevka really is Marc Chagall's town - and who knows if any of them were really all that different from each other, these Russian villages? - but like knowing that his painting The Fiddler inspired the fiddler on the rooftop of the musical about Anatevka, even while/if the story was inspired by the short story. Nice blending of several valid sources. One of my favorite movies as well. Thanks for adding to the knowledge and the lore surrounding this great movie, and this great artist.Di Eats the Elephanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12067737807348338927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-920306086483142224.post-79946184874770817422012-04-16T09:16:37.467-04:002012-04-16T09:16:37.467-04:00I wonder about the red in his painting.
