muy bonito e intimista hasta que llega la parte en la que te das cuenta de que se codeaba con gauguin y te explican lo que significan les fauves de verdad. igualmente el tío un artistazo vivan los peces rojos y las ventanas abiertas. dentro de lo que había en europa un crack

I missed the personal life stories ^^

This is a quick reference to Matisse's life, with lots of color illustrations of his own work, plus paintings that represent movements that influenced him. I wished more of the color plantes were of Matisse's work, and fewer related to his contemporaries.
