I first found out Chagall was a possible Messinic Jew when his art was displayed as an evangelistic outreach in Forest Hills NY and I heard about it.

So in sorting through the Chagall books (I am blessed to live in an area with a large Jewish population) I finally came to the 100 paintings series that picked Fallen Angel as his most important work.

I didn't go to school for art, so being self taught I had the pit fall of no guide.

But this one hundred paintings series is helping me alot.  It is kind of like the for idiots or for dummies books.  You know, they get an expert who leaves no stone unturned, misses no main point, yet it is all edited for the novice to understand.

Yes, but this is important to Jewish evangelisim.  Fallen angel is Chagall's attempt to allegorize his life and times.

Did you know he saw a pogram in 1935 poland first hand.

Did you know he was arested and almost deported to Germany from France in 1941.

That is upsetting to me because I like Chagall so much.

This is really the subject for a long magazine article so I will stop here but say there is alot to this paintintg and it is supper important to messianic Jews.
