During the 1930s, he was commissioned to illustrate books, as well as design murals for the Barnes Foundation of Philadelphia and the Chapel of Saint-Marie du Rosaire in Vence (near Cannes, France). In 1925, Matisse was awarded the French Legion of Honor. He is said to have been influenced by Neo-Impressionist painters Cezanne, Van Gogh and Gauguin, as well as pointillist artists Signac and Henri Edmond Cross. In his later years, Matisse experimented with cut-out collages.
Matisse was most recognized for his human figure, still life and nude subjects, as well as his impressionism style and work in sculptures, monotypes, aquatints, lithography, etchings, drypoints and woodcuts. During the 1890s, he also attended the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he studied under Gustave Moreau. Around a year later, Matisse relocated to France where he received his formal art education at the Academie Julian. Matisse originally began his career in law however, bedridden after an appendectomy, he began to take up painting, using art supplies his mother gave him. Henri Matisse (1869-1954) was a native of Le Cateau-Cambrésis. The model for Henri Matisses Woman in Blue was Lydia Delectorskaya, a beautiful young Russian émigrée who worked for the artist during the last twenty years of his life. This piece was illustrated by Matisse, Henri.
