Henri Matisse - Interior in Yellow and Blue (1946) (Printable Masterpiece Coloring Page for adults)

Interior in Yellow and Blue is an oil on canvas painted by Henri Matisse in 1946, housed at the Centre Pompidou in Paris. The work depicts a still life composed of a vase, fruit, and objects arranged on a table, within a space structured by the stark contrast of yellow and blue.

Black outlines vigorously encircle the forms, reflecting the radical simplification of Matisse’s pictorial language in his later years.

Coloring created from the illustration 'Le cheval, L'écuyère et le clown' (1947) by Henri Matisse, part of his illustration book Jazz'.. Of all Matisse's books, Jazz is undoubtedly the most important, revolutionizing the artist's work and the history of contemporary art... The war had darkened Paris, and the few lights that filtered through the windows seemed like miraculous jewels. It was this impression that Matisse wanted to convey by making these brightly colored stars explode against a black background' (Hommage à Tériade). Commenting on the illustrations, Matisse notes: 'Drawing with scissors. Cutting raw in color reminds me of the direct carving of sculptors'.

Coloring based on 'Las Meninas' by Diego Velasquez (1656). Is it a self-portrait of the painter? A royal portrait? Or is the device of representation the main subject of this work? It's a bit of all these things... This painting can be read in several ways, questioning the relationships between model, subject, author, viewer and representation.

Coloring based on 'The Virgin of the Rocks (National Gallery London version)' by Leonardo da Vinci (1491). A first version of this painting can be seen at the Musée du Louvre in Paris. This second version, exhibited at the National Gallery in London, is very different. The emphasis is on the identity of the two children: a halo is added above Jesus' head and a cross is painted between the hands of St. John the Baptist. In fact, the brotherhood that had commissioned the painting was not satisfied: the confusion between the two children was deemed too easy. It was this painting that took pride of place in the chapel of the church of San Francesco Grande in Milan.
