About Matisse and Derain Art Trail

Artists Henri Matisse and Andre Derain arrived in Collioure in 1905, spawning the internationally renowned art movement known as Fauvism. Many artists have been attracted by Collioure's "special light" and this art trail pays homage to their works.

Around the town of Collioure, there are more than twenty reproductions of Matisse and Derain's work displayed along the coastal path near where the artists would have perched their easels. Near to the paintings are metal picture frames where creative visitors can frame the landscape and photograph a reproduction of the scene depicted in the original masterpieces.
