Le chat aux poissons rouges (1914) par Henri Matisse - Affiche

Cat and Goldfish Bowl transforms a quiet window nook into a playful little stage. A lemon-yellow feline arches gracefully over a glass cylinder, its paw dipping into the green water where two scarlet fish weave their way around. The scene is set against a cobalt-blue table, a red wall adorned with blue leaf patterns, and a lush garden visible beyond the window. The use of flat planes, sharp outlines, and striking colour contrasts keeps the composition lively and engaging.

Drawing inspiration from the spirit of Fauvism, this piece embraces simplified forms and bold colour pairings, paying homage to Matisse’s studio energy without directly replicating any particular work.
