FROM THE BARNES FOUNDATION’S CATALOG
A bouquet of rainbow flowers and long green leaves emerges from a ceramic pitcher, which sits on a windowsill. The flowers seem to include daises, roses, carnations, and perhaps gladioli—but Matisse has abstracted them into patches and arabesques of jewel-like color. Flower Piece studies the expressiveness of color and the effects of light, both as it falls on the object from an exterior source and as it emanates from the light-colored ground of the canvas.
