"A world of intense colour comes to mind when we first think of the art of Henri Matisse. Yet, as this book so aptly proves, Matisse's genius also conquered the graphic world of black on white. Here, in 91 prints, we follow his excitement in exploring the various printmaking media, and his delight in pursuing a wide range of themes. This selection consists of works printed in black. It begins with Matisse's first print, a self-portrait carefully constructed of drypoint lines, executed between 1900 and 1903, and it ends with the bold, aquatinted "masks" of 1951-52". -Page 6.
