Details:"Moses III" Moses is one of the most important personalities in the history of the Jewish people. Chagall dealt with the story of Moses several times and the prophet inspired many of his artworks. Commissioned by God, Moses had the difficult task of leading the people of Israel out of slavery in Egypt to freedom. In the Sinai desert, he eventually received the Ten Commandments from God. In the Jewish tradition, the Ten Commandment are considered directives. “If you love God, you will not steal, lie or commit adultery”. In this third theme of his graphics on Moses, Chagall depicts the prophet as he turns towards God and listens carefully to what God tells him. He bears the stone tablets with the directives tightly in the manner of a precious treasure. His right hand indicates the directives intended to guarantee each member of the Jewish community a future life in dignity, freedom and justice. The purple background interprets the situation as a spirit-filled moment, the colour blue being a symbol for God’s faith in his people, in good times and in bad.
