About the piece
Painted around 1900, this work captures the rugged terrain of the Bibémus quarry near Aix-en-Provence. Paul Cézanne utilizes a palette of warm ochres and vibrant greens to explore the structural relationship between organic branches and solid rock, a hallmark of his Post-Impressionist technique that paved the way for modern art.
