Henri Matisse's The Violinist at the Window (Le violoniste à la fenêtre), 1918: The Violinist at the Window by Matisse, painted in his distinctive manner, is frequently seen as a self-portrait. The painting's subject matter was music, and incorporated many musical iconographic components within its design. In keeping with the works that came before it, he used the subject of the window in this piece and again used black color in fresh, lighter hues.

Marcel Duchamp's Fontaine, 1917: The work is considered by several art historians and critics to be a significant landmark in 20th century art and is arguably among the most well-known urinals in history.
