About the piece

Created around 1890, this work is a quintessential example of Paul Cézanne's structural approach to painting. By treating the human figure and the landscape with the same rhythmic, constructive brushstrokes, Cézanne achieves a masterful harmony that would go on to influence the course of modern art.
