This outline portrait features Emma La Porte, a frequent sitter for Matisse between 1914 and 1916. It is known as “Rivière” because of its similarity to the pose of J.-A.-D. Ingres’s well-known 1805 painting Portrait of Madame Rivière in the Louvre.
Matisse’s etchings, lithographs, and drawings were included in his first exhibition at 291 in 1908. This exhibition introduced the work of the emerging French artist to an American audience.
