Winter Landscape on the Banks of the Seine

Dateca. 1904-05
Maker Henri Matisse French, 1869-1954
Label TextSketchy daubs of paint suggest the gray light of a snowy day. This quiet landscape gives little hint of the titanic effect that Matisse was about to have on modern painting. Within months of completing this Neo-Impressionist painting, he would reject the style and create bold compositions painted in strong, often jarring, colors.
