Psalms of David Plate 4

Description of Art: Psalms of David Plate 4 reflects Marc Chagall’s early, lyrical approach to spiritual imagery, presenting a poetic meditation on prayer, longing, and divine presence. Figures and symbolic elements appear floating within a dreamlike space, suggesting devotion and inner reflection rather than literal illustration. Chagall’s expressive line work and luminous blues, accented with soft warm tones, create an atmosphere of reverence infused with personal emotion. The plate transforms the Psalm into visual poetry, capturing its spiritual essence through symbolism, memory, and Chagall’s unmistakable mystical imagination.
