This rare 1952 lithograph by Henri Matisse was created for the renowned French art magazine Derrière le Miroir, published by Ateliers de l'Imprimerie Arte, Adrien Maeght. An exceptional piece, it features two lithographs printed recto/verso, offering two striking Matisse compositions in one unique work. Printed on fine Arches vellum, the artwork is signed in stone by Matisse, further enhancing its collectible value.

Both images depict the female form, a subject that fascinated Matisse throughout his career. His exploration of the human body, particularly the nude, was central to his artistic expression, as he sought to distill the essence of beauty, simplicity, and emotion through flowing lines and graceful forms. These works exemplify his ability to transform the female figure into a timeless symbol of natural elegance and vitality.

In good condition, this is a rare find that embodies both artistic and historical significance—a true treasure for collectors and admirers of Matisse’s enduring fascination with the beauty of the human form.
