Henri Matisse did not fight in any war. During World War I, he was exempt from military service due to health issues, including a chronic illness. Instead, he focused on his art, producing significant works that contributed to modernist movements. Matisse's experiences and reflections during this time influenced his artistic development.
Yes, Henri Matisse was known to smoke, particularly cigarettes. His smoking habit was a common practice among artists of his time and was often depicted in photographs of him. Additionally, Matisse's studio environment reflected the bohemian lifestyle of many artists, which included smoking as part of their daily routines.
In 1937 Lydia Delectorskaya posed for Matisse in a purple robe. At the time Matisse had no intention to paint a portrait that looked like a photograph. When accused of painting unrealistic images of women Matisse explained, "I do not create a woman, I make a picture." He readily admitted that his images were not faithful re-creations of reality. * http://www.mystudios.com/art/modern/matisse/matisse-purple-robes.html
