Meanwhile, in the life of Paul Cézanne
The whole lifeNovember 1895
First Solo Exhibition at Vollard's
Ambroise Vollard opened Cézanne's first solo exhibition at his Paris gallery, showing 50 of the roughly 150 works submitted. The exhibition brought his art to a wide public; prices for his works rose a hundredfold.
25 October 1897
Death of His Mother
The artist's mother, Anne-Élisabeth-Honorine Aubert, died.
November 1899
Sale of the Jas de Bouffan
At his sister's insistence he sold the deserted Jas de Bouffan estate and moved to a small town apartment at 23 rue Boulegon in Aix; a planned purchase of the Château Noir fell through. He hired a housekeeper, Madame Brémond, who cared for him until his death.
1901–1903
The Studio on the Chemin des Lauves
In 1901 he bought a plot of land north of Aix, in 1902 built a studio there to his own specifications (now the Atelier de Cézanne), and moved in in 1903; a long narrow slot was cut into the wall to admit natural light for the large "Bathers."
29 September 1902
Death of Émile Zola
Zola's death plunged Cézanne into mourning, despite their long estrangement.
