About the Item
This exquisite lithograph after Henri Matisse (1869–1954), titled Series H, Variation 7, originates from the rare 1943 folio Henri Matisse, Dessins, Themes et Variations. Published by Martin Fabiani, Editeur, Paris, and printed by Georges Duval, Paris, on February 27, 1943, this edition presents a suite of drawings that encapsulate Matisse’s lifelong pursuit of purity in draftsmanship and composition. Created under the artist’s supervision, each plate demonstrates Matisse’s mastery of contour and simplicity, transforming minimal gestures into harmonies of balance and grace that evoke both strength and serenity.
Executed on velin pur fil paper, this lithograph measures 9.62 x 12.88 inches (24.44 x 32.72 cm). It is signed in the plate and unnumbered, as issued, in accordance with the authorized 1943 publication format. Produced during wartime Paris under the direction of publisher Martin Fabiani, this folio embodies Matisse’s commitment to artistic renewal through discipline, sensitivity, and elegance. It remains a landmark in 20th-century printmaking, celebrated for the lyrical clarity and modernity of its graphic vision.

About the Artist:
Henri Matisse (1869–1954) was a French painter, draughtsman, sculptor, and printmaker whose bold use of color, fluid line, and decorative brilliance helped define modernism and Fauvism. Born in Le Cateau-Cambresis, Matisse trained at the Academie Julian and later in Paris, where his expressive palette and relaxed compositions challenged conventions of light and form. Alongside his contemporary and friendly rival Pablo Picasso, Matisse reshaped the course of 20th-century art, each artist pushing the other toward greater innovation and emotional depth. Over his career, he worked across a wide array of media—painting, cut-outs, printmaking, sculpture, and interior design—always emphasizing harmony, balance, and visual poetry. His works are in the permanent collections of leading museums globally, including the Musee d'Orsay, MoMA, the Tate, and the Centre Pompidou. The highest price ever paid for a Matisse artwork is approximately $80.75 million USD, achieved in 2018 at Christie's New York for Odalisque Couchee aux Magnolias (1923).
