Rare vintage 8.5 x 12.25 paperstock book portrait of Matisse wearing his eyeglasses, dressed in a tie and tweed jacket, nicely signed and inscribed in the lower border in fountain pen, "A Monsieur Chlomoriten, Henri Matisse, 28/7 39.” In fine condition, with trimmed edges, and a short tear to the upper right border. Signed portraits of the great French visual artist are scarce in general, especially in this larger size—a marvelous piece.
