Le Luxe (Il)
Collioure, 1907-1908
Détrempe sur toile | Distemper on canvas
SMK, National Gallery of Denmark 
Collection Johannes Rump, 1928

Le Luxe (Il) marks the beginning of a series of monumental 
and greatly simplified figure compositions, which would absorb Matisse in the years leading up to 1911. 
The subject itself falls within a centuries-long tradition in European painting: groups of figures relaxing in a natural setting.

Matisse altered the original colors of Le Luxe (Il) in its portrayal 
in The Red Studio. He initially painted the three women closer in tone to those seen in this painting. But when he added the layer of Venetian red paint to the floor and walls, he also repainted these figures, 
who thus could be read as dark-skinned. During the early 20th century, many avant-garde artists portrayed racial difference in a purposeful challenge to European ideals of beauty. The work is the first example of the artist's use of distemper, creating uniform and matte surfaces.
