Mont Sainte-Victoire

In old age, C�zanne still tirelessly walked the country around Aix in order to paint the ensemble effect of earth, vegetation and ordinary houses, in a manner at once organic and crystalline. He was particularly fond of painting his revered Mont Sainte-Victoire, towering over the valley as in a vision. In October 1906, out painting, he contracted pneumonia, from which he then died.
