Henri Matisse created a series of stunning paper cut-outs, arranged them into compositions and added a text in his own handwriting to produce a unique work of art that has been referred to as "the visual counterpart of jazz music." This volume reproduces the famous series of images which make up one of a succession of books which Matisse designed and illustrated. The accompanying text retraces the fascinating story of the work's background, the significance of the colors and images, and looks at the importance of Matisse's handwritten pages as a counterpoint to the cut-outs.
