Matisse [1869-1954]
Description
Painted in Nice, The Sorrows of the King is considered one of Henri Matisse's last masterpieces. The painter, immobilized by illness, cut out forms of paper that had previously been covered with gouache and guided an assistant to pin them on a wall. The technique, colors, composition, and genesis of the work are analyzed.
