In 1953 he worked with the lithographer Fernand Mourlot and the art publisher Tériade to recreate the cut outs as lithographs. Matisse oversaw the first proof cut outs for the publication in 1954. However, he died in November 1954 before the magazine could be published. This special edition of Verve was eventually published in 1958 and became a tribute to Matisse. Entitled 'Dernières Oeuvres de Mattisse 1950-54' (Last Works of Matisse). The publication featured forty original lithographs of which this is one.Henri Matisse was born 1869 in an industrial area of Northern France and almost accidentally stumbled into a career in art. Initially working as a legal clerk, he drew for pleasure in his spare time but he began to paint when he was recovering from an illness, and his career as a serious artist began.He moved to Paris shortly after where he was trained in classical painting but became aware of the art of Cezanne and Van Gogh who became influential figures in the development of his own artistic style.By the mid-1890s he was showing his works in large exhibitions and by the turn of the century, his style had become more progressive. A visit to St Tropez and later Coulloure, was the inspiration for him to infuse his works with light and bright colors. His work was more an abstracted realism, his human forms recognisable but altered.. A critic nicknamed Matisse a “Fauve” or “wildbeast”, because of the way he portrayed the human form, and the name Fauvism became the term used to describe the works of Matisse and some of his contemporaries.In Matisse, it is characterized by the emphasis on the emotional power of sinuous lines, strong brushwork and bright colors, and he captures a mood rather than merely trying to depict reality. With his now defined style his success grew and he travelled extensively for inspiration. Following a permanent move to Nice, he created some of his most famous works, the Blue Nude pictures. Health issues resulted in surgery in 1941 and he was often bedridden. But this did not stop him from creating art. He devised means to paint or draw such as attaching pencils or brushes to long poles so that he could reach the canvas and his late works were as experimental and vibrant as his early works. His 1947 book, Jazz, showed a new approach in the use of paper cut-outs stuck to brightly colored paper to create his art, a technique he used until his death in 1954. Spanning a 60 year career, his revolutionary use of brilliant color and exaggeration of form to convey emotion makes him one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.“I don’t paint things, I only paint the difference between things.” -Henri Matisse In the collection of:Minneapolis Museum of Art (MIA), MN
