Tea 1919

"Tea" is an oil painting by Henri Matisse, created in 1919, that depicts a scene of two women and a dog enjoying a leisurely afternoon tea in a garden setting. Matisse’s signature Fauvist style is evident in the use of bold colors, simplified forms, and expressive brushstrokes, emphasizing the scene's warmth and tranquility. Currently located in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the painting's vibrant colors, and serene composition capture the essence of a simple yet elegant moment in nature.
