Marc Chagall, Birthday (canvas)

Description

This work represents the artist's love for Bella Rosenfeld, who He loved for more than thirty years. A kiss on the lips, a man with eyes Chiusi gets up to reach his beloved who almost surprised him he looks back the kiss. A room in the background, where time seems to have stopped. A window with white curtains, yes glimpses the street of a city, while on a table are abandoned a purse, probably hers, a tray with a cake and a knife. In the center are the two young people: she holds a bouquet of flowers, both suspended in the air, as if they had just hovered in flight, united by the kiss.
