4.0 out of 5 stars
Nicely written but not exactly what I wanted
This book is a nice overview of the work and life of Matisse. There are many beautiful and brilliantly described colorplates. It is a complete overview of his work. It also makes a beautiful coffee table piece that may inspire conversation. I reasoned that because the author choose to feature a later piece by Matisse on the cover the book might emphasize his later...

Matisse did some good interior pictures but many run-of-the-mill nudes and this book has way too many of those

This review is from: Matisse (Masters of Art) (Hardcover)
This book is a nice overview of the work and life of Matisse. There are many beautiful and brilliantly described colorplates. It is a complete overview of his work. It also makes a beautiful coffee table piece that may inspire conversation. I reasoned that because the author choose to feature a later piece by Matisse on the cover the book might emphasize his later work. But when I got the book his later work was only briefly talked about and only 2 of the colorplates were after 1940s. Overall it is a nice book to get a sense of Matisse, his work and his life.
