I'm thinking this is an inside sort of thing.

I really was just exploring Paul's gallery user interface and uploaded the following pic as my gallery cover...which apparently caught Paul's eye. The work is a 1953 paper cut by Henri Matisse late in his life entitled Le Bateau. Lot's of online references if interested but note that Wikipedia still displays it incorrectly. So no mystery or big todo ....just a nice work that my daughter brought to my attention years ago.

Most discussions I've found claim yours is the upside-down version. I would disagree. My thinking is that, if the lower image is meant to be a reflection on the water of the upper image, and there are long waves on the water, the lower image would be a "wavy" version of the upper (notably the leech and foot of the sail). It appears, however, that nobody knows for sure.

Agreed Dave....I think anyone who has spent time on the water would recognize the influence of waves on the reflection. The person who caused the stir which flipped the image was a stockbroker...apparently claiming only that the artist “would never put the main, more complex motif on the bottom and the lesser motif on the top.” To each their own...I'm sticking with my version.
