Blue Nude by Henri Matisse

Print on Cotton Canvas

Blue Nude is one of Matisse’s most iconic and controversial works, painted in 1907 after a sculpture he was working on broke. The reclining female figure, boldly simplified and rendered in cool blue tones, challenged traditional ideas of beauty and form. With its raw lines and expressive posture, the piece marked a turning point in modern art—foreshadowing both Fauvism and later abstraction. Blue Nude reflects Matisse’s daring approach to the human figure, reducing it to essential shapes while still conveying emotion, strength, and sensuality.
