The Blue House is one of those Russian wooden houses made of rough-hewn logs, standing on the narrow bank of the river Dvina and shored up against the slope by a support wall of red bricks. The front door opens onto a track running past the house. To the rear there is a path going down to the river, with sloping meadowland on either side. In the background, high up on the farther embankment and reflected in the river, stand the middle-class stone houses in the heart of Vitebsk, topped by the many-towered baroque silhouette of the monastery which stands like an immense crown against the warm-gray sky.
What in reality would be the rafters have become a purely abstract pattern, making an astonishing contrast with the realistically treated chimneypot. The vertical junctions of logs at the corners of the hut become rhythmical rows of small circular forms, which at the right-hand corner of the hut multiply merrily to form a whole cluster of dangling circles. The horizontal layers of logs create a contrasting rhythmical motif, which in turn becomes disturbed by the crooked and quite unrealistically designed windows. The hut is also part of the surface pattern and plays a major part in the rhythmic to-and-from movement of the planes which we have already noticed in the landscape on the left.

Marc Chagall (1887 – 1985) was a Russian-French artist. Chagall was considered as pioneer of modern art and one of its greatest figurative painters who invented a visual language that recorded the thrill and terror of the 20th century. For decades, he has been respected as the world's preeminent Jewish artist. "When Matisse dies," Pablo Picasso remarked in the 1950s, "Chagall will be the only painter left who understands what colour really is".
