Paul Cézanne (1839-1906). French Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundations for the connection between the concept of 19th century paintings and the more radical 20th century ( especially Kubism). Picasso and Mattise even said that Cézanne is ‘the father of us all’. Cézanne used bright colours and small and delicate brush strokes. Here, you can find most of his later works - mostly studies and still lifes. Cézanne was interested in the simplification of natural forms to their geometric essence. He focused on perspective so that he would provoke a new aesthetic experience in the audience.
