Born in the French Provence in 1839, this painter – considered to be the trailblazer of the modern – also died there in 1906, constantly connected the light and the forms of his homeland. He said that his landscapes became people thinking creatures within himself and he literally claims: “I become one with my picture!” Cézanne needs to use only a few light strokes of the brush in order to breathe life into his pictures. He arrived at his revolutionary creative forms through impressionism, but then increasingly adhered less to the laws of traditional composition. Instead, he built upon structures set upon values of color and light, as well as the formation of contour and form.
