  • Woman in Armchair-Woman in Neglect - Henri Matisse was an artist often regarded as the most important French painter of the 20th century. He was the leader of the Fauvist movement about 1900, and he pursued the expressiveness of color throughout his career. His subjects were largely domestic or figurative, and a distinct Mediterranean verve presides in the treatment.

  • Femme au fauteuil--Femme en négligé
    Painted in Nice, 1920
    Oil on canvas

    The lively surface and warmly varied palette in Femme au fauteuil--Femme en négligé betoken Matisse's passage from the somber, archly modernist austerity of the work he created in Paris during the First World War to the more sensuously representational style he practiced beginning around 1920, when he was spending part of each year on the Mediterranean C?te d'Azur. Matisse decided in late October 1917 that another cold and dismal winter in wartime Paris was more than he could bear, and he traveled south to the sunny Midi, stopping first at Marseille and then nearby L'Estaque, where he and Marquet had painted two years before. In mid-December he headed on to Nice, a city he had not previously visited. "I left L'Estaque because of the wind, and I had caught bronchitis there," Matisse later recounted. "I came to Nice to cure it, and it rained for a month. Finally I decided to leave. The next day the mistral chased the clouds away and it was beautiful. I decided not to leave Nice, and have stayed there practically the rest of my life" (quoted in J. Cowart, exh. cat., op. cit., 1986, p. 19).

Henri MatisseHenri-Émile-Benoit Matisse was a French artist whose career spanned over six decades. He was influenced by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, who painted in a “Pointillist” style with small dots of color rather than full brushstrokes. Matisse’s creativity came to the fore with sensational canvases such as, Luxe, calme et volupté, Open Window, and Woman with a Hat. Although he was initially labeled a Fauve (wild beast), he found his own style, and began to enjoy a greater degree of success. He travelled to travel to Italy, Germany, Spain and North Africa for inspiration. He signed a contract with the prestigious art dealers of Galerie Bernheim-Jeune in Paris. His art was purchased by prominent collectors such as Gertrude Stein and the Russian businessman Sergei I. Shchukin. In his later career, Matisse received several major commissions, such as a mural for the art gallery of collector Dr. Albert Barnes of Pennsylvania and for the Chapel of the Rosary in Venice. Although his subjects were traditional—nudes, figures in landscapes, portraits, interior views—his revolutionary use of brilliant color and exaggerated form to express emotion made him one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
