How did Henri Matisse use conventions of Fauvism in The Red Room?

1)Matisse used warm and cool colors and modeled the objects to create a sense of form.
2)Matisse used one-point perspective and created a deep sense of space.

3)Matisse used overall decorative-patterning and created a flattened sense of space.

4)Matisse showed his political views and his feelings about World Wars I and II through the loneliness expressed by the woman.

The answer would be number one…..since fauvism is all about punchy coloring and painting techniques
