“Working before a soul-stirring landscape, all I thought of was making my colors sing, without paying heed to rules and regulations.” – Henri Matisse 

Today, you can visit the small village of Collioure on the Mediterranean coast of France and see how Matisse and his friend Andre Derain interpreted the inspiring landscapes that they encountered.
