Born in Cateau-Cambrésis, he began painting during a recovery period in 1890 and decided to become an artist, despite his parents’ opposition. He studied at the Julian School and the School of Fine Arts in Paris, where he took lessons from the Symbolist painter Gustave Moreau. Matisse is known for his innovative use of color and form in his paintings, sculptures, and drawings. He was one of the leaders of the Fauvist movement, characterized by the use of pure colors and a portrayal of the intensity of emotions. His work is based on simplification, stylization, and synthesis. As for the valuation of his works, purchase prices range between €150,000 and €300,000 for a Matisse painting from early Fauvism, while Fauvist canvases and Orientalist portraits from the 1920s and 1930s fetch prices between €1 million and €5 million. The original painting shows the moment when Henri Matisse laid the foundations for Fauvism, an important movement in modern art. The artwork is titled Luxe, Calme et Volupté and was painted by Henri Matisse in 1904. The title is derived from a poem by Charles Baudelaire, "L'invitation au voyage".
