Les Amoureux by Marc Chagall
This is Marc Chagall’s Les Amoureux. He is one of my favorite painters, and I was surprised when I learned how his early life was full of unnecessary hardships. He grew up in a Hasidic household, which forbid any images of God’s creations, therefore, he had no visual art. Can you image? No paintings to look at, and yet, he became a painter. I always find this story impressive.
