Product description
In the bold and revolutionary spirit of early 20th-century Fauvism, this composition redefines the classical arcadian landscape through wild, non-naturalistic color. The matisse joy of life print presents a kaleidoscope of golden yellows and deep oranges, where fluid, undulating lines define reclining figures and dancing groups within a vibrant forest clearing.
About Henri Matisse
Matisse believed art should be calming, comparing it to a good armchair for the mind. His flat colour and flowing outlines make his work one of the most decorative choices for a modern home. Many artists designed or approved posters for their own exhibitions, making them part of art history.
Styling this Henri Matisse exhibition poster
With its gold, yellow and orange palette and vibrant atmosphere, this Henri Matisse exhibition poster brings instant personality to a wall. In a living room, hang “The Happiness of Life” above a sofa or sideboard: 20×30″ or 24×36″ for impact, 12×18″ for a smaller wall. Finish “The Happiness of Life” with a black or antique-gold frame: its gold, yellow and orange palette glows beside warm wood, brass and deep green or navy walls.
