‘The human face has always greatly interested me… Each face has its own rhythm and it is this rhythm that creates the likeness’ – Henri Matisse
.⠀
In the late 1940s, Matisse turned increasingly to portraiture, one of his favourite subjects.
.⠀
'I love the bold, gestural splashes of India ink and the sophisticated use of negative space which Matisse has employed to delineate the human face', says Vanessa Fusco, our Impressionist and Modern art specialist and Head of Sale in New York (@vafusco).
.⠀
'This work was acquired only a few years after it was made, circa 1950, and has remained in the same family ever since.'
.⠀
