Henri Matisse (1869 - 1954)

The Blue Window, 1913
Issy-Les-Moulineaux
Oil on canvas
The Museum of Modern Art, New York

The Blue Window depicts the view of Matisse's studio from a window in the house where the artist and his family lived. Painted from the bedroom on the second floor, the scene shows the top of the studio's pitched roof and the yellow gable surrounded by lush vegetation. An all-encompassing blue covers the internal and external space alike: The sky, the trees, the roof of the studio and the chimney, as well as the table and the wall inside. A complementary yellow is used to portray the studio exterior and the objects on the table. In this way, Matisse has transformed the view from the bedroom into a decorative composition based on two overall, complimentary colours. The painting combines outside and indside, home and work, life and art in a single image.

Vincent van Gogh (1853 - 1890)
The Church
In Auvers-sur-Oise,
View of the Chevet
1890

Between his arrival in Auvers-sur-Oise on 21 May 1890 and death on 29 July, Van Gogh painted some seventy pictures. There is only one painting of the gothic church in the village, Van Gogh opted for a low - angle view of the chevet. The ustabil lines and brushstrokes accentuate the impression that the scene is distorted. The use of light in the scene is contradictory. The foreground is brightly lit, but the church is silhouetted against a cobalt blue back ground suggesting a stormy sky or night time.

Leonardo da Vinci (1452 - 1519)

The drapery of a kneeling figure c. 1491 - 94.
(detail)

In april 1483 Leonardo was commissioned to paint an alterpiece, now know as the Virgin of the Rocks, for a church in Milan. A first version (Louvre, Paris) was not delivered, for uncertain reasons; instead he began a second version (National Gallery, London) in the early 1490s, which was finally installed in 1508. This is the study for the Angel's drapery in the second painting.
