두 소녀, 노란색과 빨간색 배경 by Henri Matisse, 1947

Henri Matisse bursts onto the canvas with a riot of sunshine yellow and bold red in this lively 1947 scene. Two figures sit at a table, their faces washed in cool lavender, seemingly lost in thought while surrounded by a vase of cheerful yellow blooms and a glimpse of a green tree outside. Painted when Matisse was in his late seventies and often confined to a wheelchair, this piece radiates an incredible, joyful energy that defies his physical limitations. The loose, expressive brushstrokes and flattened perspective show a master artist stripping away the unnecessary to capture pure, vibrant emotion.
