About the the The Joy of Life Painting
Henri Matisse did several versions of his
Joy of Life painting. In this version, the
artist has used bold, flat, contrasting colors
to create a work with much impact. His simplified
figures with strong outlines are all finding
their own peace in their own way, with some
dancing, others relaxing, while the couple
in the lower right are embracing each other.
