Product Description
From Library Journal
This book is a joy. The catalog of the very successful National Gallery exhibition of what had traditionally been considered a low in Matisse's work, it is full of good things: Cowart's thoroughly documented and well-illustrated chronology; Fourcade's essay on Matisse's struggles to reinvent his work as a mature artist; 175 pages of beautiful, thematically grouped color plates; and the meticulous catalog of the show. In spite of the critics, European and American collectors in the Twenties were eagerly buying these glowing still-lifes, interiors, and odalisques. The photographs accompanying Margrit Hahnloser-Ingold's essay on these collectors offer a rare look at installations and personalities. In these days of high book prices, this is a good buy. Margot Karp, Pratt Inst. Lib., Brooklyn, N.Y.

This review is from: Henri Matisse: The Early Years in Nice, 1916-30 (Hardcover)
This is a great book for anyone interested in Matisse and his work. It is a "Must Have". The plates are large and beautiful. The color reproductions are wonderful. The text is insightful.
