RO-BIKI Note Passport Size Notebook Museum Series - Snail

Part of the RO-BIKI NOTE Museum Series by Yamamoto Paper, this pocket-sized notebook features The Snail, a colorful cut-out artwork by French artist Henri Matisse (1869–1954).

Matisse was a pioneer of Fauvism and one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Known for his bold use of color, he was often called the "Magician of Color."

The Snail was created during the later years of his life, when he could no longer paint with a brush and instead turned to making art with cut paper. Its vibrant shapes and carefully arranged colors form a spiral inspired by the movement of a snail's shell. The artwork is considered one of Matisse's masterpieces, measuring nearly 287 cm across.

The original artwork is held at Tate Modern in London, one of the world's leading museums of modern and contemporary art.

The RO-BIKI NOTE Museum Series celebrates artworks from museums and collections around the world, bringing a little piece of art history into everyday stationery.

Each notebook features a wax-coated paper cover that develops wrinkles, creases, and marks with use, gradually acquiring a leather-like aged appearance. Its compact, passport-sized format makes it easy to carry for travel, journaling, and everyday notes.
