Our world was Matisse's world for a while

The scenes above and right reflect the one Henri Matisse showed through an open window in the painting at the top of this page.

Matisse may have chosen his palette from the cheerful colors of the houses in Collioure when he painted this view of the tower on the waterfront.

Scattered throughout the town of Collioure are "frames" through which photographers can capture the same scenes scenes Matisse painted there early in the 20th century.
