“Study to “Exodus”” is an artwork created by Marc Chagall around the year 1966 in France. Executed with pencil on paper, the piece measures 14 by 11.4 centimeters and belongs to the Surrealism art movement. It is categorized as a sketch and study.
The artwork demonstrates Chagall’s characteristic abstract and fluid style, displaying a collection of seemingly spontaneous lines and shapes. Dominated by swirling forms and faintly discernible human figures, the sketch evokes a sense of movement and emotional depth, resonating with the themes of departure and journeying as suggested by its title. The use of pencil gives the piece a raw and unfinished appearance, emphasizing the process of creative exploration.
