About the piece

Created around 1890, this work by Paul Cézanne depicts the pigeon tower on his sister's estate at Bellevue, near Aix-en-Provence. The painting exemplifies his mature style, where he used geometric simplification and rhythmic brushstrokes to bring a sense of permanence and structure to the sun-drenched landscape.
