A Side Plate Set featuring four faces from Henri Matisse’s series of aquatint portraits
A portrait in the hands of Matisse distills the essence of the subject into fluid lines, alive with quiet emotion. Alex Matisse and his creative team selected these portraits specifically as decorative decals on the Side Plate in Panna Cotta, knowing the aquatint portraits would translate well to ceramics.
Designs available in the Side Plate Set:
Patitcha souriante (Patitcha Smiling)
Nadia aux cheveux lisses (Nadia With Smooth Hair)
Nadia au regard sérieux (Nadia With a Serious Look)
Bédouine au grand voile (Bedouine With Headscarf)
