Henri Matisse, a prominent figure in Fauvism, refined form and colour into distinct shapes and rich patterns. This print captures one of his intimate interior scenes, where everyday items take centre stage. The striking contrasts carry the composition: deep blacks, zesty oranges and yellows, lush greens, and warm terracotta shades, all unified by assured, flowing lines.

• A sophisticated palette balanced by generous expanses of flat colour

• A relaxed atmosphere infused with a subtle theatrical flair
