Matisse: Madras Rouge skateboard

Matisse: Madras Rouge (The Red Madras Headdress) skateboard

Henri Matisse (31 December 1869 – 3 November 1954) was a French artist, known for his use of color and his fluid and original draughtsmanship. He was a draughtsman, printmaker, and sculptor, but is known primarily as a painter. Matisse is regarded, along with Picasso and Marcel Duchamp, as one of the three seminal artists of the 20th century, responsible for significant developments in painting and sculpture. This painting is called the Madras Rouge and features a lady wearing a red madras headdress. The lady is sitting down and her body is slightly slouched to the her left. The ladys left arm overlaps her right arm, and she also has a sort of yellow pattern applied to her headdress. The lady's gown is black and is patterned with brown flowers. This painting has been specially converted into vector format, meaning that it can be scaled without losing quality.
