Few people know that Tretchikoff actually grew up in China. He didn’t just travel to Asia to paint glamorous ladies like, say, Sir Gerald Kelly did. He actually lived there and absorbed its visual culture. Then he spent 11 years in Singapore and Indonesia. Of course, he viewed the East as an outsider, as a European, but that’s where his unique vision emerged. And you can see some early examples of it in my book – the graphic art he produced in Shanghai and Malaya. Then, in South Africa, he painted members of the local Cape Malay community, and an authority on their culture and traditions opened his first show in Cape Town. He did ‘exotic’ portraits of Africans, in traditional garb, but he also painted urban blacks – pennywhistle [tin whistle] players, newspaper boys, mothers and children. Curiously enough, this ‘commercial’ artist produced one of the first anti-apartheid paintings ever, Black and White (reproduced in my book). There’s definitely much more to Tretchikoff than mysterious Oriental ladies!

Matisse's representations of his studio often include glimpses of other
artwork. Here he depicts the left half of his large canvas, Dance I
(1909, Museum of Modern Art, New York). The carefully arranged furniture
in the foreground flattens the pictorial space. The back leg of the
tripod sculpture stand appears to rest in the grass of the painting
behind it. Similarly, the chair in the left corner is placed so that
the top rung of its back extends a horizontal purple stripe across the
canvas. In a simpler version of this composition (Pushkin Museum,
Moscow), this stripe denotes the area of wall visible between Dance I
and the studio floor.https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/483301
