A young girl in a purple dress reclines across a patterned chair in an interior flooded with bold, clashing colors, yellows, reds, greens, blues, and pinks that radiate outward from her figure. Matisse uses loose, gestural brushwork and flattened forms to create a scene of intimate leisure, where the environment seems to vibrate with the same energy as the subject, dissolving the boundary between figure and space. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
