Drypoint on wove. Image: 7.75 × 4.75 in (20 × 12 cm) Signed and numbered to the lower right margin. Literature: Duthuit 97. // Henri Matisse's "Nu assis-les yeux noris" is a drypoint on wove paper, begun in 1926 and printed in 1948 in a rare edition of only twenty-five impressions. Signed and numbered in the lower right margin and catalogued as Duthuit 97, this intimate portrayal of a seated nude reveals the extraordinary economy of Matisse's line. Each incision into the copper plate carries the authority of a master draughtsman for whom a single stroke could define volume, weight and gesture. The drypoint technique, with its characteristic burr producing soft velvety lines, lends the figure an immediacy that more elaborate methods cannot achieve.

What is Environmental Art?
Environmental art is a collective term that refers to a wide range of artistic practices and works that engage with historical and ecological themes. The term often encompasses ecological concerns, although it is not exclusively defined by them. Environmental art acknowledges and appreciates the early history of the environmental art movement, including works with activist themes and those celebrating the connection between nature and the artist through the use of natural materials.
