3. According to the passage, all of the following are true of The Ochre Head EXCEPT:

While the author clearly appreciates the work, its place in the hierarchy of all of Matisse’s works is not discussed, so (C) is the correct answer to this Except question. The four wrong answers can all be found in the passage.

For choice (A), the passage states that “colors ... refuse to be constrained by definite lines of form.” Therefore it is true that the artist avoided the constraint of coloring only between the lines.

For choice (B), the end of the passage states that the painting’s composition references a Picasso work.

For choice (D), the passage says the technique is not employed with the “free reign” used in Minotaur; that is, The Ochre Head is more constrained in its use of the technique.

For choice (E), the passage says a vase of flowers and a bench are depicted.

Answer: C
