This Henri Matisse rare vintage 1993 first edition large volume hardcover French Modern Art book is a very special and unique book to add to your library collection.
The vintage hardcover book with gold tone foil embossed spine titles, and dust jacket is published by BDD Illustrated Books. Printed and bound in Italy in 1993 by Arnoldo Mondadori Editore, Verona. It features an outstanding and impressive expansive monograph survey collection of the artworks of Henri Matisse, with accompanied compelling text authored by Walter Guadagnini.
Henri Matisse ( 1869 - 1954 ) the French born artist is known for both his sense of color and fluid aesthetic. Matisse is commonly regarded, along with Picasso as one of the most important artists who helped to define and influence radical Contemporary Art of The Twentieth Century. His mastery of the expressive language of color and drawing won him recognition as a leading figure in world Modern Art. Artworks by Matisse are included in the collections of many of the world's most prestigious museums.
This beautiful volume presents the achievement of Henri Matisse in all its brilliance. The more than 300 reproductions of this book, and the accompanying texts, provide a fascinating survey of a complex life which crossed paths with other legendary figures of the age. All of which combined to crate an artistic climate that for sheer energy and fervor was unequalled in The 20th Century. In this context, Matisse is impressive all the more for his versatility, his lucid theories in poetics to his astonishing experiments in the fields of design, engraving and sculpture, all played a key role in his overall vision of the artistic process.
The rare out of print 1st edition large format hardcover art book measures 11" W X 13 3/4" H X 1 3/4" D, with 287 pages. It features 333 illustrations, including 211 in full-color.
