Nude in White Peignoir Standing by Mirror 1937

Henri Matisse's 1937 painting "Nude in White Peignoir Standing by Mirror" is a prime example of his Fauvist style, characterized by bold color and expressive brushstrokes. The composition is simplified, focusing on the figure of a nude woman in a white robe, standing before a mirror. The distorted reflection of the figure, combined with the vibrant colors and simplified forms, creates a sense of movement and energy. This iconic work captures the essence of Matisse's artistic vision, highlighting the human form and exploring the interplay of light and color.
