Matisse exhibit opens at Tate Modern

EVEN when he was in his 80s and in frail health, the French painter and sculptor Henri Matisse still had it.

That, in part, is what an exhibition of Matisse’s late-life works demonstrates in the show that opened this week at London’s Tate Modern.

For one of the rare occasions since Matisse made them in the south of France in the early 1950s, his four “Blue Nudes” are together again in one room — much to the delight of Tate director Nicholas Serota.

It’s the first time the four paintings have been together in Britain.
