Monday, September 15 - What the Deuce

Marc Chagall's painting of the La Mariee is a very interesting piece of work. It has a man towering over a women that looks nicely dressed. It also has a goat playing a cello. All of this is taking place inside a simple neighborhood. When marc was creating this he probably thought hatime of when he was walking around in his neighborhood one night. Thinking of all the wonders that hid in the dark colors of night. The goat playing the cello probably symbolizes that some things are not what they look like, and that people hid behind a mask of some sort. There is also a fish in the air hanging on to something. I have no explanation for that. The painting may also symbolize as a wedding. The people playing instruments could have been their entertainment. the Women in the picture has more light colors that make her pop out. This may be because the wedding day is usually the "brides" day. The man behind her could simply be escorting her home.
