This new instalment in The Bigger Picture series explores Matisse's lifelong reinvention of his own artistic practice in a beautiful gift book.

Providing a unique opportunity to see Matisse's work at a remarkable scale, this volume echoes the clarity, richness, and innovation of his art. Showcasing dozens of carefully reproduced paintings and cut-outs, the book offers a panoramic view of one of modern art's most influential figures.

Tracing Matisse's development from early naturalist studies to the luminous intensity of Fauvism and the radical simplicity of his late paper cut-outs, it follows his evolving approach to form, color, and composition.

Brief essays accompany approximately fifty emblematic works, offering new insight into the artist's changing techniques and the contexts in which he worked.

  • A new volume in the ongoing and bestselling The Bigger Picture series.
  • Includes six extraordinary fold-out spreads of Matisse's most famous works.
  • Illuminating essays on his oeuvre are weaved throughout the structure of the book.
  • A gorgeous gift book featuring printed cloth binding and wonderful detailed sprayed edges.
  • The perfect addition to a library of sublime introductions to artists and their works.
