MATISSE (Henri), Self-Portraits - Lot 229

MATISSE (Henri), Self-Portraits Le Cateau-Cambrésis, Matisse Museum, 1988. Large quarto, paperback, cover illustrated with a self-portrait by the artist. Catalog of the exhibition held at the Matisse Museum in Le Cateau-Cambrésis from June 4 to September 11, 1988, devoted exclusively to the self-portraits of the master of Fauvism. The book traces the evolution of the artist’s self-portraiture throughout his career, from his early drawings as a young man to his mature works. Richly illustrated, it highlights a more intimate and lesser-known aspect of Matisse’s work, revealing the successive stylistic transformations that marked his artistic journey. A beautiful, complete copy suitable for reference.
