Product description
In the revolutionary spirit of Henri Matisse’s late-period gouache cutouts, this composition captures a profound sense of fluid motion.
About Henri Matisse
Henri Matisse (1869–1954) led the Fauves, painters known for bold, non-natural colour. His flat colour and flowing outlines make his work one of the most decorative choices for a modern home. Abstract works let viewers bring their own associations, so they rarely feel the same twice. Early abstract pioneers included Wassily Kandinsky, Piet Mondrian and Hilma af Klint. Modernist art broke with tradition in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, experimenting with colour, form and abstraction.
Styling this Henri Matisse print
This Henri Matisse print pairs a vibrant atmosphere with a red and green palette that is easy to build a room around. In a living room, hang “Swimmer in the Aquarium” above a sofa or sideboard: 20×30″ or 24×36″ for impact, 12×18″ for a smaller wall. Finish “Swimmer in the Aquarium” with a simple black or oak frame: its red and green palette stands out against warm neutrals and charcoal. For a gallery wall, pair “Swimmer in the Aquarium” with two or three smaller prints, spaced 2–3 inches (5–8 cm) apart.
