Additional Details: This artwork by Henri Matisse is a lithograph from the book Cinquante Dessins, published by Les Soins de L'Artiste in 1920. The portrait is most likely of Henriette Darricarrere, who served as his model during the years 1920-1927. First Edition. The portfolio was edited and printed by Matisse himself. This is one sheet from the self produced suite of 50 photo-lithographic reproductions of his drawings of women to accompany a 1920 exhibition of his work to coincide with his exhibition at Bernheim-Jeune, France. Only 1000 copies were produced, each drawing is plate signed Henri Matisse. Elegance meets craftsmanship in this exquisitely framed piece. Encased in a beautifully ornate, gold-painted wooden frame with a bold 2 ¾" profile and a rich 1 ¾" depth, it exudes timeless sophistication. A luxurious 5-inch archival cream mat enhances the artwork, while the Optium plexi glaze ensures crystal-clear protection. A perfect statement piece for any refined space.
