Henri Matisse, The Horse, the Rider, and the Clown, 1943-44. Maquette for plate V of the illustrated book, Jazz, 1947
She wasn't going to do it. She poo-pooed the whole idea for months. But, it's so so hard staying away from the one you love. In Ciwt's case, Matisse. So today she braved all the '8 people just looked at this hotel,' 'only 2 more seats left' and other flashing signs. She hung in through the continually changing, often disappearing airline fares. And she emerged victorious - with both airline reservations and hotel reservations and a Callie sitter for her beloved Matisse's cut outs show at MoMA in January!
