Henri Matisse was born in
France in 1869, and originally trained as a Lawyer. However whist
recovering from appendicitis he turned to art. Matisse brought together a
circle of like-minded artists who became known as the Fauves, holding a
sensational exhibition in 1905. Matisse made sculptures, designed sets and
costumes and illustrated books. He was also an important graphic artist,
who in his bed ridden final year’s, evolved his own method of arranging
cut-out paper shapes. He died in France in 1954.
