Illustration for Verve magazine, issues 35–36, dedicated to Matisse’s later works
This Blue Nude, folded in upon itself in a contemplative posture, appears as the result of a long process of simplification. A few cut-out shapes are sufficient to suggest the weight of the body, the curve of the back and the balance of the pose. The extreme economy of means contrasts with the richness of the presence achieved. Through this figure reduced to its essentials, Matisse attains a remarkable synthesis of monumentality and simplicity, transforming the human body into an immediately recognisable universal sign.
