Landscape
by CÉZANNE, Paul, Oil on canvas, 54 x 65 cm
C�zanne has used an unspectacular natural formation as his motif: a forest path on a rocky pine-covered hillside. However, the contrasting colours and interplay of light and shade make this simple subject very expressive, and its effect is due to the fact that C�zanne has painted reality as he sees it, without embellishment.
