Marc ChagallAccording to art historian Michael J. Lewis,
Chagall was considered to be "the last survivor of the first generation of European modernists."
He had two basic reputations: as a pioneer of modernism and as a major Jewish artist.
When Matisse dies, Picasso remarked in the 1950s: "Chagall will be the only painter left who understands what colour really is."
