Henri Matisse, born 1869, rose to prominence in the first decade of the twentieth century as a leading figure in the controversial art movement, Fauvism. In 1908, the prestigious Grande Revue invited Matisse to publish an article in reply to the movement's critics. The intensely personal Notes, presented in this book, were the result.

Our unique parallel text presents the original French on the left page, the English translation on the right, with sentences and paragraphs aligned for easy reading and reference. Parallel texts of this kind are a very valuable learning resource, as they make the foreign language content immediately comprehensible.
