Henri Matisse was born in Le Cateau-Cambrésis, Northern France, in 1869. He is one of the leading masters of the 20th century. Influenced by Impressionists such as Cézanne and Van Gogh, he pursued painting expression through free use of color. In 1941, after a long battle with cancer, he was no longer able to hold a pencil, so he explored a new style using paper and scissors, later creating paper-cut works known as "cut-outs."
