Studio with Goldfish (L'Atelier aux poissons rouges)

Discussion

FROM THE BARNES FOUNDATION’S CATALOG

Henri Matisse shows us the interior of his studio at Issy-les-Moulineaux, outside Paris. At right is a screen with a green robe draped over it, behind which models could dress and undress. Matisse liked to reference his own works in his paintings. Several of the artist's works appear here, including the canvases on the walls and the sculpture on the table, which also appears in the Barnes's large Music Lesson .
