À 72 ans, Henri Matisse survit à une lourde opération et échappe à la mort. Mais il est désormais en chaise roulante, et on lui déconseille l’usage de tout diluant dans sa peinture. Finie la térébenthine, il adopte la Linel, une gouache ultrafine dont il enduit des feuilles entières qu’il se met à découper, armé d’une paire de ciseaux.
