Henri Matisse (1869-1954) - Nu bleu II

Henri Matisse (1869-1954) – Blue Nude II Silkscreen on Arches vellum paper with deckled edges, 65 x 50 cm. Proof in three color passes, enriched by the use of graphite. Signed and dated on the plate, hand-numbered HC ../50 at the bottom right Publisher’s dry stamp of authenticity at the bottom left. Edition by La Brugière, limited to 50 Not-for-sale copies, after Henri Matisse’s oeuvre. From an artisanal workshop, this proof is printed according to traditional methods, where each color is applied by hand, pass after pass. This deliberately slow rhythm, far from industrial productions, guarantees a standard of execution and a wealth of material that are immediately perceptible. This work revisits one of Henri Matisse’s most iconic compositions, where the apparent simplicity of the motif reveals an absolute mastery of form and color. The deep blue, signature of this series, imposes a presence that is both graphical and timeless. The quality of Arches paper, combined with exacting printing work, gives this proof an especially elegant texture and depth. Each copy benefits from a unique character, reinforced by the artisanal deckle cut. Work in perfect condition, never framed, photo with framing for example. Careful shipping with secure packaging, international tracking, insurance and fast delivery.
