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").
