The Marc Chagall Museum, dedicated to the outstanding 20th-century artist, is located in Nice and attracts many tourists. Born in Vitebsk, Belarus, Chagall moved to Paris, where a significant part of his creative life took place. In his later years, he lived in the village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence near Nice, where he passed away in 1985.

Chagall often turned to biblical themes, creating a series of paintings based on the Gospels. These works differed from his other canvases, and the artist wanted to organize a separate exhibition for them. After the collection of biblical paintings was transferred to France, it was decided to create a museum. In 1972, the 'National Museum of Biblical Message of Marc Chagall' opened in Nice.

The artist, who lived to be 97, actively participated in the museum's work. In addition to the famous cycle of 17 paintings, the collection includes engravings, studies, sketches, sculptures, and stained glass, totaling around 250 works.

The Marc Chagall Museum is primarily dedicated to biblical themes in his work. It was created with the artist's involvement, allowing visitors to understand the logic of the exhibits' arrangement and immerse themselves in his art.

The museum consists of three halls, each with its own theme. The first hall, the largest, includes 12 of the 17 'Biblical' paintings, arranged by color palette with a predominance of cool tones. It features canvases related to events from the Old Testament, the creation of the world, the emergence of religion, the early Christians and their persecution, scenes from the Gospels, and other themes. Each of Chagall's paintings is a reflection on faith and humanity's place in the universe. Thanks to the large sizes of the canvases, they are easy to view, and audio guides and tours help draw attention to small details that may contain answers to the artist's philosophical questions.

Chagall aimed for the viewer to reflect on his works and come to their own conclusions, after which the artist revealed his vision. A tour of the museum not only introduces visitors to Chagall's work but also encourages contemplation.

The second hall, smaller in size, contains 5 paintings of biblical themes, united by a warm color palette. It features subjects from the 'Song of Songs,' such as 'Paradise,' 'The Expulsion from Paradise,' and 'Jacob's Dream.' Through these works, Chagall conveys his reflections on the eternal, reflecting his tender attitude towards religion.

The third hall of the museum does not have a permanent exhibition: the display changes every 5-6 months. Here, works by young French artists and renowned European masters are exhibited. Current information about the ongoing exhibition can be found on the museum's official website.

In addition to the halls with paintings, the museum offers a concert venue for classical music evenings and themed events. The hall accommodates up to 200 guests, and a concert grand piano is installed on stage. Special attention is drawn to the huge stained glass windows created by Chagall himself. The stained glass panels, made for many cathedrals and concert venues in Europe, were his passionate pursuit alongside painting. In the museum, Chagall combined the best of his stained glass works, following the overall biblical theme of the museum.
