Blue Nude (Souvenir de Biskra)
- Blue Nude (Souvenir de Biskra)
"Blue Nude (Souvenir de Biskra)" ("Nu bleu: Souvenir de Biskra") is a 1907 oil painting by Henri Matisse. It is located at the Baltimore Museum of Art as part of the Cone Collection.
Matisse painted the nude when a sculpture he was working on shattered. He later finished the sculpture which is entitled "Reclining Nude I (Aurore)".
The painting, which may be classified as Fauvist, was controversial; it was burned in effigy in 1913 at the Armory Show in Chicago, to where it had toured from New York.
