Hello I found these at a yard sale. Matisse art just wondering if anyone knows if these are posters? Very colorful. And they actually look good on my wall! Any info would be great.

Love these! What do they say at the bottom? Perhaps a clearer image would help. Also, if they were posters made for a major exhibition, they will probably be labelled on the outer edge or back with the museum name, year, etc.
I did come across this, though it's hard to tell if this is an original or reprint, or what size: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Matisse-Cut-out-Framed-1954-Lithograph-Snow-Flakes-FREE-FRAMING-/231180723513?pt=Art_Prints&hash=item35d371e539
Hunter no I don't think ebay is the same one. This only has the writing under pic no writing on bottom corners as far as who made. These do have age to them. I found both on vintage posters web site but don't know if they are the same.
What does the writing say?
It says Fleurs de Niege on the snow and Vegetaux on the vegetables. And they are both 31 x 15. I took them out of frame they have nothing else written on them. And when you look thru a 10x loupe you don't see dots. I don't know if that means anything or not.
Since there's no numbering or other info, they do seem to be mass produced posters. But they're lovely! enjoy them :)
But don't you think if they were mass produced, you would see them everywhere? The only ones I have seen like these are on The Vintage Poster.
