In Maestro Chagall’s little village there is always a story to tell about what happened recently … especially about floating goats and herders in the sky … or that funny neighbor who was almost blown away by the last rain storm …

This is the newest interpretation of this over 2000 year old story. In Chagall’s paintings there always seems to be the same village present.

It somehow looks rather like the competition by the village idiots, who can imitate Icarus the best.

This must be a weird village - all the people and animals constantly dress up or take drugs. Those colors are just stunning!

Either Mr. Chagall was constantly on drugs or this was the most wonderful village ever! Great painting …
