    About this ebook

    Paul Cézanne forms the connection linking late 19th century Impressionism and the early 20th century's new contour of Cubism. Matisse and Picasso together recognize that "Cezanne is the father of all us," so that his contribution to modern art just can not be rejected.
    Cézanne, who exhibited paintings rarely and lived progressively more in creative isolation, is considered nowadays as one of the greatest pioneers of modern art and painting, equally for the method that he evolved of putting down on canvas exactly what his eye saw in nature and for the qualities of form that he accomplished all the way through a unique dealing with space and color.
    He lived at the same tame with the impressionists, but went further than their goal of the personality brushstroke and the drop of light onto things, to build, as he say: "something more concrete and solid, similar to the art of the museums.''

      Cezanne - Maria Tsaneva

      Drawings

      Foreword

      Paul Cézanne, who exhibited paintings rarely and lived progressively more in creative isolation, is considered nowadays as one of the greatest pioneers of modern art and painting, equally for the method that he evolved of putting down on canvas exactly what his eye saw in nature and for the qualities of form that he accomplished all the way through a unique dealing with space and color.

      He lived at the same tame with the impressionists, but went further than their goal of the personality brushstroke and the drop of light onto things, to build, as he say: "something more concrete and solid, similar to the art of the museums.''

      Cezanne was born in the southern French town of Aix-en-Provence, January 19, 1839, the son of a wealthy banker. His boyhood companion was Emile Zola, who later gained fame as a novelist and man of letters. As did Zola, Cezanne developed artistic interests at an early age, much to the dismay of his father. In 1862, after a number of bitter family disputes, the aspiring artist was given a small allowance and sent to study art in Paris, where Zola had already gone. From the start he was drawn to the more radical elements of the Parisian art world. He especially admired the romantic painter Eugene Delacroix and, among the younger masters, Gustave Courbet and the notorious Edouard Manet, who exhibited realist paintings that were shocking in both style and subject matter to most of their contemporaries.

      Many of Cezanne's early works were painted in dark tones applied with heavy, fluid pigment, suggesting the moody, romantic expressionism of previous generations. Just as Zola pursued his interest in the realist novel, however, Cezanne also gradually developed a commitment to the representation of contemporary life, painting the world he observed without concern for thematic idealization or stylistic affectation.

      The most significant influence on the work of his early maturity proved to be Camille Pissarro, an older but as yet unrecognized painter who lived with his large family in a rural area outside Paris. Pissarro not only provided the moral encouragement that the insecure Cezanne required, but he also introduced him to the new impressionist technique for rendering outdoor light.

      Along with the painters Claude Monet, Auguste Renoir, and a few others, Pissarro had developed a painting style that involved working outdoors (en plein air) rapidly and on a reduced scale, employing small touches of pure color, generally without the use of preparatory sketches or linear outlines. In such a manner Pissarro and the others hoped to capture the most transient natural effects as well as their own passing emotional states as the artists stood before nature. Under Pissarro's tutelage, and within a very short time
