Excellent condition First edition first printing monograph on Matisse - the definitive collection.
Ding on back cover lower left bottom that has a shallow impression on the cloth book - last pic - hard to see. This book was never read - just moved around from bookcase to bookcase.
The hardcover art book with navy blue linen covered boards, gold tone foil embossed spine titles, and dust jacket is published by The Museum of Modern Art New York, printed in Italy in 1992 on the occasion of the exhibition. It features an outstanding and impressive expansive monograph survey collection of the artworks of Henri Matisse, with compelling accompanied text authored by curator of the MOMA exhibition John Elderfield.

No other book offers such a complete and thoughtful overview of the career of this preeminent artist of The 20th Century.
