Speechless . A landmark Reich Claude There are some artbooks that can be considered landmarks of the genre and this is one such book. In 1986, Pierre Schneider, a respected French art critic for the French weekly L'Express, published this most important book on the greatest French painter of the XXth century and, in my opinion, it has not been equalled ever since. Fr. "The Bible On Matisse" according to Bruce Loveitt. I noticed that this is coming back into print in November 2002, so I figured I'd write this review.

Including over nine hundred illustrations, this is the most substantial reference of the works of Matisse ever published.The reader will discover Matisse watercolorist, draftsman, ceramist, and the architect-- and unquestionably one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century.. Matisse was still creating at a time in his life when many artists are content to rest on their laurels.Since its original publication in 1984, this book by Pierre Schneider stands alone as the bible on the art of Matisse. "to devote my life to the essential thing-- the thing for which I am made and which can bring a little happiness to the great family, the greatest spiritual family."--Matisse to André Rouveyre
