Henri Matisse is universally known for his painting, but he also worked regularly as an engraver between 1900 and his death in 1954. His etchings comprise more than eight hundred pieces that make up a gigantic visual library, a complete document about his work process and his way of turning what he saw into art. This book, published on the occasion of the exhibition Matisse. Engraver at the Fundación Canal in Madrid, brings together 63 of his etchings in which we can identify the same observation process that the artist followed in his drawings. A fascinating volume that reveals a different Matisse, more intimate and close, who nevertheless contains in each work the keys to his universal genius.
