Matisse painted women in interiors throughout the 1920s, but The Yellow Dress can be seen as a major change in his style. The painting combines the familiar elements of the Nice works—patterned floors and walls and shuttered windows—with an assertively monumental pose and central position for the figure. Etta Cone purchased this work in 1932. When she went to Matisse’s studio the following year on one of her regular trips to Paris, he had no canvases to offer her because he was busy with other projects. However, he did not disappoint her. On her arrival, she recalled: “He [Matisse] said, ‘I have a surprise for you’ & presently I turned & there sat the model in the yellow taffeta dress with the large yellow hat on, just in front of the window—the exact reproduction of my latest painting. His bed-room (which is his studio when he is well) was the scene of this picture. Needless to say I was thrilled.”
