Matisse's Poets: Critical Performance in the Artist's Book
by Brown, Kathryn       
(Paperback - English - 9781501351396)
Throughout his career, Henri Matisse used imagery as a means of engaging critically with poetry and prose by a diverse range of authors.

By tracing the compositional and interpretive choices that Matisse made as a painter, print mak ..
