CEZANNE & PISSARRO
Paul Cézanne, Une moderne Olympia (A Modern Olympia), 1873 - 1874, oil on canvas, 46x55 cm, Musée d’Orsay, Paris
1890’s-1900’s Cézanne, Mont Sainte-Victoire
- paints touch-by-touch, modulating as he goes along
- mountain as a pre-text
- one part of Cézanne was very faithful to reality; but also strayed from it
- e.g. little pits of interchangeability (e.g. colors where they don’t belong)
- one of his later paintings, bordering on abstract
- passage—laws of nature out the window; as long as laws of painting are intact (IMPORTANT)
