This is a stunning gallery quality painting with great colors. Original watercolor on paper. Signed H. Matisse lower left. Guaranteed to be a one of a kind piece. To my knowledge it has never been catalogued. I am selling as "attributed to Henri Matisse" based on the paperwork included by a pHD in art history. It is not fully authenticated by the Matisse Foundation. That is reflected in the price.
Titled: "Woman With Parasol"
Size: 11.7 x 16.3 inches; sold unframed.
Paperwork:
(1)An original signed Provenance and Certification document on letterhead stationary from son of British government official.
(2)A COA as attributed to Matisse by a pHD in Art History.
(3)A copy of a letter from the British government dated 1955. Letter acknowledges an attempt from the owner to return art he had in his possession that was from forced seizures between 1933-1945. This piece was part of that collection.
(4)An older appraisal from a certified Appraisal- dated 2007. This appraisal was very high I don't want to mislead anyone as to valuation, but I will include it.
Picture is sold as-is. The paperwork is the sole professional opinion of the issuer only.
