Born in Cateau-Cambrésis, Matisse began painting during a recovery period in 1890 and decided to become an artist, despite his parents’ opposition. He studied at the Julian School and the School of Fine Arts in Paris, where he studied under the symbolist painter Gustave Moreau. Matisse is known for his innovative use of color and form in his paintings, sculptures, and drawings. He was one of the leaders of the Fauvist movement, characterized by the use of pure colors and an expression of the intensity of emotions. His work is based on simplification, stylization, and synthesis.

The artwork is called Luxe, Calme et Volupté and was painted by Henri Matisse in 1904. The title is drawn from a poem by Charles Baudelaire, "L'invitation au voyage".
