HENRI MATISSE
Papier découpé'
BACKGROUND OF HENRI MATISSE
Henri Matisse Henri Matisse (31 December 1869 - 3
November 1954) was a French artist, known for his use of
colour and his fluid and original draughtsmanship.(retrieved
from:http://www.henrimatisse.org/biography.jsp 2014)
Due to an illness Henri Matisse was prevented from painting
in 1948
Starting producing artwork out of paper cut out called Papier
découpé
PA P I E R D É C O U P É

been painted with gouache

Allowed him to draw in colour
THE SNAIL

• One of his last and largest pieces of work
THE SNAIL
succession of patches of color that curl around
resembles the shell of a snail
“'The Snail' is an expression of Matisse's response
to the colour and light of the Mediterranean scene
- its sun, sky, sea and vegetation.” (Retrieved
