Der französische Maler Henri Matisse ist unserem
Gedächtnis für immer eingebrannt durch Cartier-Bresson.
Das Bild zeigt den Maler zuhause, in seiner »Villa Le
Rêve«, umgeben von Vögeln und den Kopf mit einem
Turban bedeckt. Obwohl es 1944 aufgenommen wurde,
zehn Jahre vor dem Tod des Meisters, war Matisse bereits
ein gebrochener Mann. 1939 hatten er und seine Frau sich
60 nach 41-jähriger Ehe getrennt. 1941 unterzog er sich einer
HENRI CARTIER- Kolostomie, worauf er an den Rollstuhl gefesselt war.
