Additional Details: This artwork Planche 51, by Henri Matisse is a lithograph page from the book Cinquante Dessins, published by Les Soins de L'Artiste in 1920. Planche 51 from Henri Matisse’s 1920 Cinquante Dessins portfolio depicts an older woman and a young girl reading, rendered in his signature minimalist line. While the figures are not officially identified, the intimate domestic scene suggests they may be inspired by Matisse’s wife, Amélie, and daughter, Marguerite—both frequent subjects in his work. Created for his exhibition at Bernheim-Jeune, this lithograph reflects Matisse’s focus on familial themes and emotional nuance through simplicity of form. Elegance meets craftsmanship in this exquisitely framed piece. Encased in a beautifully ornate, gold-painted wooden frame with a bold 2 ¾" profile and a rich 1 ¾" depth, it exudes timeless sophistication. A luxurious 5-inch archival cream mat enhances the artwork, while the Optium plexi glaze ensures crystal-clear protection. A perfect statement piece for any refined space.
