Le Grand Bois 1906

Henri Matisse's "Le Grand Bois" from 1906, is a bold and expressive lithograph. The artwork features a simplified and stylized figure, with bold lines and dark shading, characteristic of his Fauvist style. Matisse captures the essence of the human form, emphasizing movement and energy through the sinuous curves and contrasting patterns that make up the composition. The striking simplicity of the lines and the absence of detail create a sense of immediacy and intensity.
