Lot Essay

“This afternoon, I was out of bed from three to half past seven. I have been working with color, and I have the conviction of having witnessed the great breakthrough in color which I had been waiting for, analogous to that which I had made in drawing last year. I am deeply contented, happy!” –Matisse
