Henri Matisse's brilliantly colored works are to be found in nearly every museum of modern art throughout the world, and his reputation in Modernist art history is second to none. We examine three paintings in particular - Bathers by a River, Le Luxe 1 and Decorative Figure on an Ornamental Background - to see how he rose to this pre-eminence. We also hear how Modernist art historians categorize his work - and ask whether we should always agree with them.
