Description
inspired by Henri Matisse's depictions of Nice.
See through the eyes of a master artist: through a window to a view lost to time. From his thin hotel room at the Hôtel Mediterranée in Nice, Matisse saw the bay of beautiful blue: the French Riviera in December.
Matisse was spellbound by the Cote d'Azur. Many times he stated when he realised he could see this light every morning, he couldn't believe his luck. Matisse made the seaport city his home every winter from that point on, and the surroundings found their way into his work. That soft light of the winter sun and the rich, deep colour of the sea enraptured him. Through the bright colours and the lapping brushwork here, that spirit that stirred Matisse remains.
