Artists portrait of Henri Matisse

Henri Matisse

  • Born: 31. December 1889 in Le Cateau
  • Died: 3. March 1954
The works of Paul Cézanne and Paul Signac largely inspired the French painter Henri Emile Benoit Matisse, born on December 31, 1889 in Le Cateau, Northern France. Under their influence he was, as of 1906, able to discard his early impressionist style in favour of using intense colours as the central, stylistic device. That way he turned objects into carriers of colour, whose duty no longer was to realistically or naturalistically portray surfaces. For art critics, who saw the paintings of Matisse and his colleagues as a distortion of shapes, this was an intolerable occurrence and therefore the group was mockingly called "Les Fauves" (the wild ones). Still lifes, which perfectly fitted his preference for a spatial ornamental division, accompanied his entire work. He converted everything spatial and concrete into coloured surfaces and doing so, he created rhythmically balanced compositions of the highest decorative effects without over turning towards abstraction. His colourful and surface-like style led Matisse to paint murals in the 1930s. From 1941 onwards, he created works of brilliantly coloured paper cutouts, which marked the decorative peak of his achievement. In his last years of creation, he was also commissioned to design the decoration of the small chapel Notre-Dame du Rosarie in Vence near Nice, where he had lived since 1917. Henri Matisse died on March 3, 1954 in a suburb of Nice.
The pictures are predominantly assigned to the art direction others.
The art works of the artist are dominated by the colors white, pastel and gray.

Art Prints

We deliver exclusively art prints from well-known art publishers in brilliant quality, such as the art print »The plane tree, 1951« from Henri Matisse. Classic art prints are normally produced by offset or screen printing. In this case, often also spot colours and embossments are used.

Stretcher on canvas

Our canvas prints are handmade in our own workshop. Either the canvas print or the art print laminated on a canvas is stretched onto a quality keyless frame. Perfectly wedged and provided with a suspension, the canvas image can be hung directly. Optionally, we also offer each canvas picture framed, i.e. with floater frame. »The velvets, 1947« of Henri Matisse as a canvas image also beautifies your home.

Framed pictures

We frame almost every picture. You can choose from many different frames. Passepartouts are just as much a part of your choice as are various options for surface protection. So »The birds 1947« of Henri Matisse becomes a highlight for your living room or bedroom.
