L'ouvrage présente l'ensemble des connaissances sur son oeuvre et sa vie à travers plus de 1 000 entrées portant aussi bien sur ses créations que sur les personnes, les lieux et les concepts qui leur sont rattachés. Il traite d'environ 270 peintures, sculptures, gouaches découpées, décors ou réalisations architecturales, présentés et étudiés en fonction du parcours de Matisse et de l'évolution de son art. Plus de 500 entrées sont consacrées aux multiples amis, artistes, collaborateurs, écrivains, marchands et éditeurs qui ont suivi sa carrière, se sont intéressés à son oeuvre ou ont été influencés par elle, sans oublier les femmes qui furent ses confidentes et ses inspiratrices. Ces relations professionnelles, amicales ou sentimentales sont ici racontées à partir des témoignages et correspondances qu'elles ont suscités. Sont également répertoriés les villes et résidences où Matisse a habité ou séjourné, ainsi que les notions, idées, principes et thèmes récurrents qui ont façonné son univers esthétique et permettent de saisir son processus créatif.

Dernières oeuvres créées par Matisse pour la chapelle du Rosaire à Vence, les chasubles et les ornements liturgiques viennent en parachever la création, faisant de cette chapelle une oeuvre d'art totale. Tout en respectant les couleurs liées aux temps de la liturgie et utilisées dans les offices religieux, Matisse élabore avec sa technique des papiers gouachés découpés un ensemble de vêtements et d'accessoires d'une créativité et d'une liberté exceptionnelles.

Between 1935 and his death at midcentury, Henri Matisse (1869-1954) undertook many decorative projects and commissions. These include mural paintings, stained glass, ceramic tiles, lead crystal pieces, carpets, tapestries, fashion fabrics, and accessories--work that has received no significant treatment until now. By presenting a wealth of new insights and unpublished material, including from the artist's own correspondence, John Klein, an internationally acclaimed specialist in the art of Matisse, offers a richer and more balanced view of Matisse's ambitions and achievements in the often-neglected later phases of his career. Matisse designed many of these decorations in the innovative - and widely admired - medium of the paper cut-out, whose function and significance Klein reevaluates. Matisse and Decoration also opens a window onto the revival and promotion, following World War II, of traditional French decorative arts as part of France's renewed sense of cultural preeminence. For the first time, the idea of the decorative in Matisse's work and the actual decorations he designed for specific settings are integrated in one account, amounting to an understanding of this modern master's work that is simultaneously more nuanced and more comprehensive.
