Henri Matisse pares the figure back to striking basics in this later cut-out. A deep cobalt shape surrounds a warm ochre centre, framed by blocks of green, yellow, magenta and teal. A crisp white leafy sprig rests on a simple table form, adding a fresh contrast. The design balances movement and stillness, colour and calm.
