Reproduction of an original gouache paper cutout by Henri Matisse. The artwork depicts a giant snail shell spiralling outwards from the centre of the composition, surrounded by a series of brightly coloured abstract shapes arranged in a circular formation. The artwork is one of Matisse's most famous cutouts, showcasing his unique ability to create dynamic and energetic images through his innovative use of colour and form. Henri Matisse (1869-1954) was a French artist known for his innovative use of colour and form in painting and sculpture. He was a leading figure in the Fauvism art movement, which emphasised vibrant colours and bold brushstrokes, and later in his career, he became known for his paper cutouts. Matisse's work often featured simplified forms and decorative patterns, and he was particularly interested in the interplay of shapes and colours. The web image shows a watermark in the shape of a P which isn't included on the printed poster. This poster is printed by a third-party provider (Rosenstiels) on 250gsm coated art paper, which differs from other prints in our shop. The Snail by Henri Matisse has a built-in white border that frames the motif elegantly.
