In his work he created images of a long-gone world half real, half imagined, deeply spiritual. He drew upon many of these motifs throughout his career, from his early years in Paris, right up until his later architectural works, in stain glass and painted ceilings that took in commissions all around the world. Art critic Robert Hughes referred to Chagall as \"the quintessential Jewish artist of the twentieth century\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eChagal created works in a wide range of artistic formats, including painting, drawings, book illustrations, stained glass, stage sets, ceramics, tapestries and fine art prints.
