La Mariée ("The Bride")
Painted in 1950 by Marc Chagall, La Mariée "depicts a yearning for something that's lost."
Der Spaziergang
Pure happiness is a difficult emotion to capture, but in his painting, ‘Der Spaziergang,’ Marc Chagall crafts the emotion in such a way that it is easily conveyed. Most noticeable is the woman in pink who appears to be suspended above ground. Elation has been known to make one feel as if they are floating in midair. The brightness of her dress in comparison to the paleness of the background makes it easy to for the eye of the viewer to find it first. Chagall did this intentionally to make the joyous woman his painting’s focal point.
