The Twelve Tribes lithographs after Chagall based on preliminary
sketches for the Jerusalem stained-glass windows. In 1959 Chagall was
commissioned to design twelve stained glass windows for the new
synagogue of the Hadassah-Hebrew University Medical Centre, situated in
the Judean hills west of Jerusalem. The number twelve is considered
spiritual and sacred. These magnificent windows symbolise the twelve
sons of Jacob from whom sprang the twelve tribes of Israel. Keen that his designs be more widely disseminated, Chagall was closely
involved with the production of the set of lithographs based upon his
studies, created by the world famous Mourlot Frères of Paris: the
publisher, James Parton, recalled how the artist stood beside the
lithographer to watch the single sheets pass through the hand-fed stone
press, one colour at a time...to catch every nuance of shading. [He]
threw out the whole first set of gravure plates: the yellow, he felt,
was off a shade. They are a beautiful vintage set of original lithographs that would look lovely hanging on one of your walls!
