Did you know? In his later years, when illness made it difficult for him to paint, Henri Matisse developed his innovative cut-paper technique, which he called "painting with scissors." This allowed him to continue creating art despite his physical limitations. He would direct assistants to cut shapes from pre-painted paper, which he would then arrange and rearrange to create his compositions. This technique resulted in some of his most iconic and celebrated works, including "Blue Nude IV" and the series "Jazz."
