Matisse inspired

Colourful collage in the style of Matisse

In his late sixties, when ill health first prevented Henri Matisse from painting, he began to cut into painted paper with scissors. In time, Matisse chose cut-outs over painting: he had invented a new medium.

Now the Marlborough Group have taken inspiration from Matisse and produced some amazing designs of their own.
