The Dance (La Danse) are two related paintings made by Henri Matisse between 1909 and 1910. The first preliminary version is Matisse’s study for the second version. The composition or arrangement of dancing figures is reminiscent of Blake’s watercolour Oberon Titania and Puck with fairies dancing from 1786.
