Musee Matisse (La)
 

Description

Housed in a magnificent red building, this museum stands on Cimiez Hill, close to the city's Arènes (ancient amphitheater) and the Musee archeologique . Matisse lived in Cimiez from 1917 until his death in 1954. Paintings, drawings and some of his earliest works are on display, along with pieces that reveal his lesser-known talents as a sculptor. Several black and white photographs offer glimpses of the artist's private life.

Not much excitement
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/1/05
I am sorry to say that this exhibition's overall impresssion it gives is that Matisse was much over-rated and stagnated in his art while Picasso moved on. Some of the art work is actually badly executed and should not realy be on public show. Get a local bus up from town right to the Olive grove/park.The bus journey is more interesting.

for museum rats only
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 2/11/05
expensive and not much to see, don't expect to see any Matisse paintings, go anyway if Nice is your only destination on your trip.
