Sorry for the big link. I couldn't get the actual picture to copy from the website.

1. Can I be your granddaughter too?

3. Oh, that's so sweet!

The work by Matisse was included in a slide show I created, "The Beauty Project," of works of art I considered beautiful.

She doesn't know that much about art but Matisse is surpassingly beautiful in his fauvist color paintings. No wonder she likes it so much!

I'm an art historian, not an interior decorator, but anyone can see its appeal.

8. I was copy/pasting from the seller's website, not from an actual pic of the painting.

It was showing it in a frame. I wanted it framed to save her the effort.

She is going with me and her mother to Barcelona and Paris next March. Sadly, this is not a Matisse she will see. I believe the original is in a museum in Nice.

She will love it!

16. She singled it out an art slideshow of mine which I showed her. I don't think she ever saw it before

13. Beautiful. Matisse was one of my favourite painters when I was in my 20s.

14. the best of his fauvist works, IMO. Just saw a Matisse exhibit at MoMA last August but no fauvist

work. But I saw the "Red Studio." that was a thrill!

15. I never studied it. Just found his work interesting to figure out.
