Henri Matisse (1869–1954) is one of the central figures of twentieth-century art who is remembered for his bold use of colour. Fewer people know that Matisse first studied law, only to discover painting while recovering from surgery in 1890 and swap his law books for art studies in Paris.
In 1905 and 1906, the vivid canvases of Matisse and his colleagues caused a stir in the Paris salons. The group was given the mocking nickname les fauves, meaning the wild beasts. That nickname became the starting point of Fauvism, with Matisse as its leading figure. His work later grew from painting into book illustration, cut-paper works, and eventually whole spaces. The chapel in the small French town of Vence, for one, is his own design down to the architecture, the stained glass, and the interior.
