[Aaron rencontre Moïse] Then the Lorde sayde unto Aaron "Goe meets Moses in the wildernesse". And he went and met him in the mount of God and kissed him (Le seigneur dit à Aaron: Va dans le désert. Aaron partit et le rencontra sur la montagne de Dieu et il l'embrassa) - The Story of Exodus

Léon Amiel, Paris, New-York 1966, 36x49.5cm, une feuille.

Original lithograph in color, one of the 15 prints printed on Imperial Japanese paper and reserved for the artist and his collaborators, only draw with 20 other Japan and 250 Arches paper. Unsigned proof, like all the events of this series, except the frontispiece.

Superb test on Japan made especially for The Story of Exodus published in 1966, Chagall realized the 24 inset lithographs printed by Mourlot.
Fernand Mourlot, undoubtedly the best artisan lithographer of the XXth century, was naturally the printer and the friend of the greatest artists of his time. "Picasso, Matisse, Chagall, Miró, Braque, Dubuffet, Léger, Giacometti ... have enriched their own expressions and contemporary art with a new area of research.With Mourlot, and thanks to him, lithography has acquired both a personality and a future. " (Pierre Cabanne, in Fifty Years of Lithography ).

Already a printer of the two volumes of the Bible illustrated by Chagall, Mourlot contributed to the artist's training in the art of lithography in the 1950s. It was at this time that Chagall began to attend the studio of Mourlot to learn lithographic processes and befriends the artisans of the printing industry, including Charles Sorlier.
Thus it is at the peak of his art that Chagall realizes this story of the Exodus which coincides with the completion of his immense lithographic and pictorial work on the Bible begun in 1930 at the initiative of Ambroise Vollard. This decorative cycle, entitled The Biblical Message, is the origin of the creation of the Marc Chagall Museum , originally the National Museum of the Marc - Chagall Biblical Message .

Rare, original proof printed on Japan, the most beautiful paper and the best for color engravings.
