Washington DC's National Gallery of Art holds 227 works by Marc Chagall (1887–1985) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.

Chagall's dreamlike paintings float between folklore, memory, and modernism in a way that is immediately recognisable. In person, his use of colour — brilliant, saturated, emotionally direct — is even more striking than reproductions suggest.
