About the painting

In the museum's own words — in Russian

Пейзаж - излюбленный мотив импрессионистов, для которых вибрирующее отражение в воде было символом изменчивости видимого мира. В произведении Сезанна отражение неподвижно, вода напоминает застывшее зеркало. Иное, нежели у импрессионистов, видение мира увело художника от их метода. Сезанн искал в натуре не сиюминутное, а вечное и неизменное. Композиция картины с выделенным центром, обрамленным деревьями, замкнута и стабильна. Мазки, положенные по форме предмета, лепят обобщенные объемы, приближающиеся к простым геометрическим телам. Тональность колорита определена зеленью деревьев и синевой уплотненного волей художника воздуха. Ясность структуры материального мира, выявленная Сезанном, подчеркивает величие природы

The whole life
  1. March 1886

    Zola's Novel "The Masterpiece" and the Crisis of a Friendship

    Zola published "The Masterpiece" (L'Œuvre), a novel about a failed painter, Claude Lantier, in whom Cézanne recognized himself. It was long believed that the friendship ended forever, but a rediscovered letter of 1887 shows that relations continued for some time.

    Married: Marie-Hortense Fiquet

  3. 28 April 1886

    Marriage to Hortense Fiquet

    He married Hortense Fiquet in Aix in the presence of his parents. The marriage was concluded not out of love but to secure the rights of their fourteen-year-old son Paul as a legitimate heir.

  4. October 1886

    Death of His Father and Inheritance

    After the death of Louis-Auguste, Cézanne, together with his mother and sisters, inherited his fortune, including the Jas de Bouffan; the artist's financial situation eased considerably ("he left me an income of 25,000 francs").
