<i>The Green Stripe</i> Painting by Henri Matisse

The Green Stripe is an oil painting from 1905 by French artist Henri Matisse of his wife, Amélie Noellie Matisse-Parayre. The title stems from the vertical green stripe down the middle of Madame Matisse's face, an artistic decision consistent with the techniques and values of Fauvism. The painting features a bust-length view of Madame Matisse in blocks of bold and vibrant colors. It is associated with the Fauvist Movement due to this unnatural and experimental use of color. The portrait has received both praise and criticism due to this technique as well as the artistic representation of the model. The Green Stripe is currently displayed in the Staten Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Fauvism is a style of painting and an art movement that emerged in France at the beginning of the 20th century. It was the style of les Fauves, a group of modern artists whose works emphasized painterly qualities and strong colour over the representational or realistic values retained by Impressionism. While Fauvism as a style began around 1904 and continued beyond 1910, the movement as such lasted only a few years, 1905–1908, and had three exhibitions. The leaders of the movement were André Derain and Henri Matisse.
