About the piece
Painted in 1867, this striking portrait by Paul Cézanne depicts his friend and fellow artist Achille Emperaire. Executed with the heavy, expressive impasto characteristic of Cézanne's early 'couillarde' style, the work possesses a monumental presence and a sophisticated color story of deep indigo and muted earth tones.
