LITERATURE
Charles Sorlier, The Lithographs of Marc Chagall, Volume III, 1962 - 1968, 1969, reproduced page 101, catalogue #466
The Story of the Exodus portfolio was published in 1966 in an edition of 250 on Velin d'Arches paper. Although each portfolio was signed and numbered on its frontispiece, the lithographs on Arches paper were not. The only images that were signed are from an additional edition of 20 copies printed on Japan paper. There was also an additional 15 copies marked A to O, reserved for the artist and his fellow workers.
This lithograph is from the portfolio numbered 99 on its signed frontispiece.
