Henri Matisse

Matisse’s legacy to twentieth-century art is seductive bright colors and the poetry of the human figure reduced to a mere essence of line and shape—created with a few sheets of cut and pasted colored paper. This volume by Susan A. Sternau celebrates the life and work of this remarkable artist with 98 full-color reproductions and archival photographs. Published by Todtri in New York in1997; ISBN 0-7651-9248-9.
