Did you know Matisse’s father was in the fabric business. Most of the patterns Matisse had in his painting were not made up by him but were actually fabrics from his fathers fabric company. Many years ago there was a show at the Met where the actual fabrics were on display next to his paintings!
Wish i’d seen that Met exhibition, I love Mattise’s background multicolour dye story. Troppo beautiful xxx
