Matisse1941-1954

This major show features more than 230 paintings, drawings, books and other documents tracing the rich final years of Henri Matisse's career.

At nearly 80 years old, Matisse reinvented himself through the medium of intensely coloured paper cut-outs, which he elevated to an autonomous visual language.

Visitors will get a chance to see a range of works borrowed from Paris' Pompidou Centre - closed for renovationuntil 2030 - and international collections, including the famous Blue Nudes and the 1946-48 Vence Interiorsseries.

Matisse1941-1954is at the Grand Palais from 24 March to 26 July.
