The name of Henri Matisse (1869–1954) is associated with an entire era in the history of European art. Pablo Picasso summed up his rival's work with one phrase: "Matisse was always unique and unrepeatable." For the first time, a biography reveals a Matisse not as serene and self-assured, but as doubting, suffering, misunderstood by the public and his own family; not as a dangerous anarchist and savage, but as a cultured, intelligent, educated man who loved poetry and could discuss art better than any critic. Practical and conservative in life, romantic and rebellious in his work—this is how the 20th-century art reformer, an artist who succeeded in simplifying painting, appears in the intellectual bestseller by British biographer Hilary Spurling, who was awarded the prestigious Whitebread literary prize for her work, became the Book of the Year in England in 2006, and was translated into many languages.
