A peaceful pose sits among a wealth of pattern. In this Henri Matisse print, a seated nude rests beside a bowl of lemons and a potted plant, surrounded by ornate motifs, rugs and a gilded mirror. Blue, saffron, chestnut and leafy green appear in broad blocks, receding behind the figure. The contrast is deliberate: a calm figure in a lively room.

Matisse’s distinctive interplay of colour and shape leads your eye from skin to textile and on to the wall. Simple planes suggest volume, while ornament takes on an architectural quality. If you’re creating a gallery wall, browse the full range of Matisse prints and bring together different patterns and colour palettes with ease.

  • Palette: azure and teal, with touches of ochre, coral and jade
  • Mood: thoughtful, decorative and warm
  • Styling tip: display it near woven textiles or a leafy plant to pick up details from the scene

Available in several sizes, this poster can find a place in a living room, bedroom or study in need of an artistic escape. A leading Fauvist, Matisse favoured bold colour and simplified forms to heighten emotion. Want to know more about the person behind the palette? read more about Matisse’s joyful life and studio habits. Pick a size and let the pattern take centre stage.
