Barnes was an American chemist businessman art collector writer educator and the founder of the Barnes Foundation. Barnes made a fortune as the developer of the antiseptic Argyrol and subsequently amassed an impressive collection of more than 2000 pieces of rare art. His extensive holdings include many European and American impressionist masterpieces and early modern art including works by Cezanne Matisse Van Gogh and Picasso. His collection of 181 Renoir paintings continues to be the largest number of the artist’s paintings gathered in one location.</p><p>Barnes started the Barnes Foundation in 1922 as an educational institution with strict limits to its use and very specific rules about its operations. Barnes was known for his ambition and his artistic sensibility as well as his eccentricity.</p><p>At the Foundation he insisted that the art be displayed in a unique way exhibiting the works by their formal and expressive similarities rather than using the traditional method of grouping items by the date they were created the place of origin the type of item or its medium.</p><p>In 1931 Dr. Barnes began work on ""The Art of Henri-Matisse"" whom he regarded as “the foremost painter of the day.†Barnes first met Matisse in 1930 when the artist asked to visit the Foundation during a trip to the United States. During his visit Dr. Barnes proposed that Matisse create a mural for the Main Gallery which later would become The Dance mural.</p><p>Henry Hart first met Dr. Barnes in the early 1920s while Hart was employed as a journalist for the Philadelphia Record. The two developed a close friendship and maintained a personal relationship until Dr. Barnes's unexpected death. Henry Hart transitioned from journalism and became an editor at Scribner where he published ""The Art of Henri-Matisse."" The book was released on January 13 1933.</p><p>In early January 1933 Hart sent Barnes an advanced copy of the book which he shared with Matisse. At the time Barnes was in Nice with Matisse. Both Matisse and Barnes replied to Hart.</p><p><strong>Autograph note</strong> of Matisse and Barnes on the verso of a scenic Nice postcard addressed to Hart at his Scribner's Office in New York City:</p><p><em>""Nice January 1933. Thanks for the advance copy of our book. It's fine very attractive Matisse is delighted with its appearance especially the illustrations - but he will add his own comments herewith. A.C.B.""</em></p><p>Matisse adds <em>""I congratulate you on your book. I find it well composed and the prints are excellent. Sincerely H. Matisseâ€.</em></p><p>Dr. Barnes believed that art had the power to improve minds and transform lives. Over the course of his lifetime along with ""The Art of Henri-Matisse"" he wrote several books about his theories of art aesthetics.</p><p>Albert C Barnes <strong>books inscribed</strong> to his close friend Henry Hart who later published his only biography ""Dr. Barnes of Merion an Appreciation"":</p><p>""The Art of Henri Matisseâ€: <em>To Henry Hart who with kindness and patience delivered this baby in the Scribner Maternity. Albert Barnes.</em></p><p>""Art and Educationâ€: <em>To Henry Hart with mixed feelings all good. Albert Barnes.</em></p><p>""The French Primitives and Their Formsâ€: <em>To Henry Hart in friendship and esteem.

14600Eminent French painter. Matisse ranks among the greatest artists of the 20th century. Scarce handwritten letter entirely in Matisse's hand 1 page dated November 2 1949 in French. At this time in his life Matisse said that all he could do was work he dreaded the daily confrontation with form and color on the canvas and could not face it without the consoling human presence of the pretty young girls he paid to pose for him. "That's what keeps me there surrounded by my fruit and flowers which I get to grips with little by little almost without noticing . . . and then I wait for the thunderbolt that is bound to follow."The young women who posed for him all learned to live and work in the atmosphere of almost unbearable tension generated by Matisse's effort to express his emotions on canvas-an effort that drained all his strength. He felt the same tension as when asked to pose himself. <br/><br/>Matisse writes: "Dear Friend I am quite upset about having to write to you that I am too nervous to be able to pose. It is something that has always been painful for me. I have never been able to pose even for Marquet 50 years ago. Please believe dear friend in my regrets and in my best wishes. H. Matisse 2 nov 49 ". Matisse and Albert Marquet were among the foremost painters in the Fauvist movement. They met at and both attended the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs one of the most prestigious French Universities of art and design. Matisse and Marquet were roommates for a time and they influenced each other's work.<br/><br/>Wonderful associations between the two luminaries with interesting insight in Matisse's private nature and the great painter's own nervousness at being the subject and posing.

Matisse<br /> 1/03/1909"<br /> <br /> Matisse was a French artist known for his use of colour & his fluid brilliant & original draughtsmanship. As a printmaker & sculptor but principally as a painter Matisse is one of the best-known artists of the 20th century. Although he was initially labeled as a Fauve wild beast by the 1920s he was increasingly hailed as an upholder of the classical tradition in French painting.1 His mastery of the expressive language of colour and drawing displayed in a body of work spanning over a half-century won him recognition as a leading figure in modern art.

1937510540Verve 1937. First Edition. Paperback. FINE. Complete run of the first four issues of Teriade's legendary art magazine. Beginning with a stunning cover produced by Matisse for the first issue Verve would incorporate fresh artwork into its cover designed newly commissioned by artists such as Miro Picasso Chagall and other leading lights of the French art world. Each issue offered spectacular color lithographs printed by the Paris lithographers Mourlot. Early issues came in litho-printed card wrappers in boxes later volumes would be in paper-over board with litho covers. This choce allowed Teriade to feature the fresh lithographic artwork in the cover design but left the books themselves extremely fragile and succeptible to wear. Additionally the full-page lithographs have been continuous targets for art dealers looking to excise the plates. So condition seen here is quite rare with each volume preserved COMPLETE FINE with no signs of the wear and toning so commonly seen. 'The cover of Verve No. 1 is by Henri Matisse; it consists of three unmodulated colors--red blue and black--that the master cut directly from printers' ink specimen books. . Mattisse's cover for the first issue lithographed by Fernand Mourlot printers was an original work of art created expressly for the magazine--as would be practically all of the Verve's covers. . The painter took great pains to make sure that the cover would turn out exactly as he wished. . THe care Matisse lavished on what others might consider a minor undertaking was one of the hallmarks of Teriade's publications. How did he induce the greatest artists of this century to give the very best of themelves . Matisse and Teriade shared a common ideal. For both of them painting was life itself.'
