The Goldfish

  Buy now from barewalls.com1912: Pushkin Museum of Art, Moscow

Matisse painted a number of works featuring a bowl of goldfish. Their bright forms make an effective focal point in many of his appealing still lifes from this period. Combined with flowers and tropical foliage they lend an exotic atmosphere to this painting of paradise on a tabletop.
