About the painting
Paul Cezanne made this work during his first prolonged stay at Auvers, where he was mentored by Impressionist painter Camille Pissarro. Cezanne rendered the unusual perspective—looking down onto the rooftops of Auvers and out to the distant countryside—using blocky, energetic patches of color and areas of ragged brushwork that seem unfinished, especially at the lower left and center. These choices, which were radical at the time, mark his attempt to communicate not merely the landscape’s appearance but also the feeling of seeing it and painting it.

Intussen, in het leven van Paul Cézanne
Het hele leven1870–1871
Franco-Prussian War: Life in L'Estaque
During the war he lived with Hortense Fiquet in the fishing village of L'Estaque near Marseille and evaded conscription; in January 1871 he was declared a deserter but managed to avoid capture.
1872
Working with Pissarro in Pontoise
At Pissarro's invitation he worked in Pontoise; his mentor persuaded him to abandon dark tones and paint with the three primary colors, which lightened Cézanne's palette.

Auvers-sur-Oise: Meeting Dr. Gachet
He lived with Hortense and their son in Auvers-sur-Oise, where he met the physician and art lover Paul Gachet (later Van Gogh's doctor), who made his studio available to him.
15 April – 15 May 1874
First Impressionist Exhibition
He took part in the first group exhibition of the future Impressionists in the studio of the photographer Nadar; his "A Modern Olympia" provoked critical outrage. "The House of the Hanged Man" was bought by Count Doria for 300 francs — one of the few paintings sold.
