Abstract
On Chagall's 1915 painting Jew in Bright Red (Saint-Petersburg, State Russian Museum), which portrays an older Jewish man sitting on a stool with one eye open and one eye closed. Argues for an Eastern/Western duality in the iconography, and explores the influence of Russian futurism and Benedikt Livshits's (Livsic) text The one and a half-eyed archer. ;
