Synopsis
This is the first full biography of Henri Matisse, and most of its contents will surprise even specialists. The few facts known until now about Matisse's life have been distorted by inaccuracy, misunderstanding and glaring gaps. Hilary Spurling's book investigates the secret life of the Fauve - or wild beast - whose paintings shocked and infuriated his contemporaries in the first years of the century. It tells the story of an innovative genius, born in war-torn, poverty-stricken Flanders- just the other side of the French frontier from Van Gogh's home - who overcame hardship and disaster to fulfil at last Van Gogh's prophecy: 'The painter of the future will be such a colourist as has never yet been.'
