Previously titled 'Harmony in Blue', Henri Matisse redesigned this piece in 1909 and retitled it 'Harmony in Red'. Matisse was greatly influenced by the Post-Impressionists, Gauguin, Cezanne and Van Gogh, and was an ardent admirer of Japanese art and motifs. He developed his style using areas of flat, brilliant and often unnatural colour and invariably outlined his forms in a manner similar to Van Gogh. This Fauvist painting, much like the work of Impressionist painter Claude Monet, has no central focal point. The painting initially was ordered as 'Harmony in Blue,' but Matisse was dissatisfied with the result, so he painted it over with his preferred red. Presented in a premium box frame with a sleek black grain finish, along with a gallery-finished mount and glass. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
