Excellent, my dear Professor. I just HAD to see what was in that painting that "stupified" and "astounded" some people so much.
Matisse used a lot of colors in this piece which we might consider "clashing", but he pulled it off brilliantly. The composition is perfect. I love it.
Thanks so much for always going the extra mile for us art lovers.
