Lovers on a Bench 1922

"Lovers on a Bench" (1922) is an etching by Marc Chagall, depicting a couple embracing on a bench outside a small village. The artwork embodies Chagall's signature style, characterized by expressive lines and a dreamlike quality. The simplified forms of the buildings and the couple's floating figures create a sense of unreality, reminiscent of the artist's Jewish heritage and the traditional folk art of his native Vitebsk, Russia. Chagall's works, often imbued with themes of love, loss, and memory, invite viewers to explore the emotional landscapes of his art.
