Matisse
Matisse uses past realistic studios interiors by Courbet, Bazille, and others, then he merges these paintings with his present, a concern with color-field painting. The composition of this painting is casual and simplistic. The interweaving and tying together of objects in past paintings such as "Harmony in Red" can not be found. Instead, the space is very open, and always returns to the surface of the image. 1911; Oil on canvas, 71 1/4" x 86 1/4" Museum of Modern Art, New York
