Who said beauty had to play by the rules? In The Algerian Woman, Matisse shattered tradition with fearless colour and unapologetic emotion - red, gold, and blue daring to outshine restraint. This striking artwork showcases Matisse's fascination with North African culture and his mastery of bold colour where Orientalist themes meet revolutionary artistic expression.

Henri Matisse didn't just use colour. He weaponised it.
While the art world played by the rules, Matisse threw them out entirely - slapping pure, unmixed colour onto canvas and daring anyone to object. They called his movement Fauvism, from the French for "wild beasts." He took it as a compliment.
Alongside Picasso, he became one of the twin poles of 20th century modern art. Then, confined to a wheelchair in his eighties, he invented an entirely new medium - cutting shapes from painted paper. "Drawing with scissors." We call it refusing to be diminished.
