It isn't signed or numbered, so it seems to be an open edition print. I'm no expert, but I don't think it holds a lot of value. You might want to check out some of the groups on facebook that ID and value art work.

I agree. It is a decorative piece, probable value, $300 to $500 if you can find an auction house that will sell it (they generally won't sell anything under a few thousand dollars).

Just doing a bit of tidying up on some older threads, mainly for the benefit of anyone searching the site for information.

The original for this work was a 1956 etching by the Belarusian-French early modernist artist Marc Chagall (1887-1985) titled “Le Buisson Ardent” (The Burning Bush). There’s an original here, priced at £1500 (£1911):

The original was in monochrome, and yours says it has been hand coloured in 1960 (but unlikely to have been done by the artist), as well as being given an alternate title of “God reveals himself to Moses”. I would assume this is from one of the many subsequent print runs for the work, and coloured by a commercial seller.

I don’t know what it’s worth, but there is a subsequent work of a similar nature with the addition of an angel, titled “Then the Angel of the Lord Appeared to him” which is more usually sold as a colour print, with various alternate titles and a date of 1966. Prices for limited editions are usually in the region $50-$70:
