We all know Paul C\u00e9zanne<\/strong>. His paintings are world-famous and the artist became one of the leaders of Impressionism<\/a><\/strong>. His life was turned upside down by an encounter with a man who was criticized by his contemporaries. Here is a look at the incredible story of Paul C\u00e9zanne<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul C\u00e9zanne the impressionist <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As everyone knows, C\u00e9zanne was an impressionist painter<\/strong>. In other words, the artist freed himself from the academic art<\/a> that imposed its definition of art on all artists. Indeed, all the subjects and codes of painting imposed by the academy conditioned the artists to respect the rules if they wished to be exposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the Impressionists <\/strong>themselves exhibited their work! Unfortunately, this was a dismal failure, as the rebels of the brush were shunned by critics and the public. Disappointed and touched by the public’s reception, Paul C\u00e9zanne<\/strong> decided to return to his beloved Provence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A miraculous encounter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Exiled in his Provence, C\u00e9zanne had no idea that a young student would change his life. Ambroise Vollard<\/strong> was in the habit of buying the paintings of little-known artists for nothing and selling them on. C\u00e9zanne painted a picture of his angel from heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Paul
Paul C\u00e9zanne : “Ambroise Vollard”, 1899.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Thus, upon discovering the works of C\u00e9zanne<\/strong>, he decided to mount an exhibition on this artist who was misunderstood by his peers. It was an immediate success! Despite the exorbitant cost of the exhibition, the public was there. As you can see, this exhibition marked the end of official art!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, C\u00e9zanne was able to blossom and leave us wonderful paintings that we still appreciate today. The Mus\u00e9e d’Orsay<\/a> in particular, where the Impressionists are the masters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, did you know all those things about him ? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
