The Lorrain Chair 1919

"The Lorrain Chair," painted by Henri Matisse in 1919, exemplifies his signature Fauvist style with its bold colors and simplified forms. The painting features a simple still life composed of a chair, a plate of peaches, and a patterned background. The chair is rendered in a rich, red-brown hue, while the peaches are a vibrant yellow-orange. The background is a simplified pattern of blue and white, which adds a sense of depth and texture to the composition.
