Robe violette et Anémones (known in English at Purple Robe and Anemones) is a 1937 painting by Henri Matisse[1] featuring a woman wearing a purple robe sitting next to a vase of anemones.
The painting is among those purchased by art collector and socialite Etta Cone[2] and is part of the Cone Collection at Baltimore Museum of Art.[3] The painting has been called "one of the best-loved pieces" of that collection, a collection estimated to be worth almost a billion dollars in 2002.[4]
The painting has been described as showing "Henri Matisse's comprehensive use of space: not much is left empty, creating a rich viewing experience. ".[5] It has also been said that it is "a great example of Matisse's use of flat areas of bold color and pattern" , as the placement of overlapping objects creates a sense of space with simple lines, suggestive of volume.[4]
