About the piece

Painted around 1891, this work captures the Bellevue Plain in Provence with Paul Cézanne's signature structural brushwork. The vibrant contrast between the sun-baked 'red earth' and the cool blue of the expansive sky exemplifies the artist’s mastery of light and form in the landscape of Southern France.
