The lithograph was created for a special issue of the legendary French magazine Derrière Le Miroir, dedicated to Chagall's stained glass windows in the Hadassah Synagogue in Jerusalem. The sheet reflects the artist's characteristic world of dreams and symbols: figures surrounded by a glow of colors seem to transport the viewer to a space where the earthly and the heavenly unite.
“In painting, there are no boundaries for me: I see the world in colors, and in these colors my memory, my faith, my love come to life.” — Marc Chagall
