| Note | Steady, industrious work and a constant seeking and reevaluation of his remarkable art marked Henri Matisse's long life and career. His continued struggles with self-expression gave to the world, over some six decades, a wealth of new visions in line, color, and form. With the exception of Pablo Picasso, no other artist has so profoundly and single-handedly influenced the direction of modern art. This volume celebrates the life and work of this extraordinary artist with 98 full-color and archival illustrations. |
