Paul CA zanne Trees Road Arbres et route c. 1890
Paul Cezanne: Trees and Road (Arbres et route), Paul Cezanne, c. 1890, Oil on canvas, Rather than depicting a recognizable site or a spectacular view, as had been the tradition in French landscape painting, Cezanne focuses on an ordinary tree next to a road. Trees appear frequently in his work, sometimes as framing devices for a view into the distance, but more often as the main subject. Here, scraggly branches reach across the canvas as distant foliage is abstracted into a screen of broad, flat marks. Cezanne probably painted this scene on or near his familys property outside of Aix-en-Provence. Overall: 28 3/4 x 23 5/8 in. (73 x 60 cm)

EDITORS COMMENTS
In Paul Cezanne's "Trees and Road (Arbres et route)" the artist deviates from the traditional French landscape painting by focusing on an ordinary tree next to a road. This print captures Cezanne's unique perspective, as he often depicted trees in his work, either as framing devices or as the main subject. The scraggly branches of the tree reach across the canvas, creating a sense of movement and dynamism. The distant foliage is abstracted into broad, flat marks that form a screen-like effect. Through this abstraction, Cezanne invites viewers to contemplate not just what they see but also how they perceive it. It is believed that Cezanne painted this scene on or near his family's property outside Aix-en-Provence. By choosing such an unremarkable subject matter, he challenges conventional notions of beauty in art and encourages us to find significance in everyday scenes. This particular print measures 28 3/4 x 23 5/8 inches (73 x 60 cm) and showcases Cezanne's mastery of oil on canvas technique. It serves as a testament to his innovative approach to landscape painting and his ability to transform seemingly mundane subjects into captivating works of art.
