C�zanne: Landscape Into Art

C�zanne: Landscape Into Art

Paul Cézanne
4.3/5 ( ratings)
This classic study, now expanded, juxtaposes C�zanne's paintings with photographs of the landscapes they depict

C�zanne: Landscape into Art, which reprises and expands the classic 1996 publication by Yale University Press, does precisely this. In this highly praised study, the scholar Pavel Machotka juxtaposes photographs of the sites of C�zanne's landscape paintings--whenever possible, from the same angle and at the same time of day that the artist painted the scenes--with reproductions of the relevant paintings, offering a uniquely practical analysis of the ways in which C�zanne transformed reality into art. Since the original publication of this volume, new sites have been discovered--the result of scrutinizing collections of contemporaneous photographs and land registry records. These discoveries have added considerably to our knowledge of C�zanne's movements and have even helped to date his paintings more precisely. The new photographs, which range from postcards from the artist's time or the author's own color photographs, allow for a richer and better informed consideration of C�zanne's oeuvre. In light of those discoveries, Machotka has rewritten the previous edition to offer a fresh, rich view of C�zanne's artistic aims and accomplishments.
