The wolf by Henri Matisse
From the 'Jazz' series, 'The Wolf' channels the raw energy of folk narrative and fable into Matisse's signature cut-paper language. A stark silhouette — predatory, angular, alive — confronts a field of flat colour with an almost heraldic directness. The composition has the immediacy of a woodcut and the boldness of a modernist poster, collapsing the distance between high art and popular storytelling in a single decisive image. It is one of the more dramatic plates in 'Jazz'.
This archival fine art print, made in our Berlin studio, captures the strong contrast and sharp silhouette of the original with precision on matte fine art paper. The bold graphic character of 'The Wolf' reads with full force — exactly as Matisse cut it.
