Historical Notes
Composed of graceful contours in a minimal composition Matisse clearly conveys the emotions of love and security through the image of the mother with a child, on a background filled with flowers and stars.
This work represents the innate sanctity of maternal bonds.
As the two figures hold each other closely, we immediately sense the affection shared between mother and child. They hold each other tightly, their heads tilted together with faint hints of a smile crossing their lips.
This delightful work embodies Matisse unique fluid draftsmanship and his control capabilities of the line.
Framing
The artwork is nicely presented in a real wood frame, mounted on acid-free materials to guarantee the inalterability over time and protected with Museum grade anti-reflection glass.
