Description
A nomad in his own way, Henri Matisse traveled widely. From Collioure to Moscow, Padua to Seville, Biskra to Tangier, and New York to Tahiti, he never separated travel from painting, enriching his understanding of others. Though he disliked the picturesque, he declared in 1933: "The reverie of a man who has traveled is far richer than that of one who has never traveled."
By mapping his journeys, this book offers a renewed understanding of his life and work, moving beyond the usual focus on stylistic breaks in art history.
