From St. Louis Art Museum:
Henri Matisse evokes the relaxed atmosphere of Nice, France, a seaside city where the artist lived and worked for many years. Large doors have been thrown open to reveal the palm trees and sands of the sunny Mediterranean coast. Within the interior, Matisse explores a range of rich colors and decorative patterns around a seated figure that appears to be deep in thought. The artist painted variants of this picture with differing coloristic effects.
