EDITORS COMMENTS
Chad Gadya: The Tale of the Goat" is a captivating and iconic work of art created by the Russian avant-garde artist Lazar Markovich Lissitzky in 1919. This masterpiece, a lithograph from an illustrated book with color lithographs, is a vibrant and abstract depiction of the traditional Jewish folktale of the same name. The image showcases a series of bodies, each one representing a character from the tale, arranged in a dynamic and geometric composition. The central figure is that of Chad Gadya, the goat, whose face is depicted with expressive lines and bold colors. The other figures, including Eliezer, Angel of Death, and the Angel of the Grave, are also depicted in a stylized and abstracted manner, reflecting Lissitzky's avant-garde approach to art. The print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Jewish community and the artistic innovation of the early 20th century. Lissitzky's use of color, design, and composition pushes the boundaries of traditional illustration, creating a work that is both historically significant and visually stunning. This lithograph is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, offering a glimpse into the avant-garde art scene of the 1910s and the unique artistic vision of Lazar Markovich Lissitzky. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. is one of the many prestigious institutions that have recognized the importance of this work and have included it in their permanent collection. The Keystone Archives, a leading provider of historic and cultural images, offers this rare and beautiful print for exhibition and research purposes. It is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of art, Jewish culture, or the avant-garde movement of the early 20th century.
