Baffled Reflection

Henri Matisse's Red Room (Harmony in Red) oil on canvas painting which was painted between 1908-1090 has bright, vibrant colors which intensifies the euphorically unique style of the room.  In the middle of the painting is a lonely table, occupied by only one person who is solemnly staring downwards at the red tablecloth, surrounded by abstract shapes on the walls.  The environment's fashion is contradictory with the person involved.  This painting demonstrates the beauty of complex circumstances, especially in such a loud setting, where sits a woman considering in her strange solitude.
