More by Henri Matisse across every museum store.

Matisse had an exceptional ability to capture the essence of a place or object in his artwork. His paper cutouts and collage assemblies were translated into a different medium - in this case, a tapestry. Despite their lack of precision, his drawings are still recognizable as archetypes, inspiring these earrings.
