More about this artwork

"Paul Cézanne (1914)" by Édouard Vuillard is a compelling graphite portrait that captures the intense and reflective gaze of the celebrated post-Impressionist painter, Paul Cézanne. This work, sketched in subdued tones, brings out the depth and sensitivity of Cézanne, known for his pivotal contributions to the development of modern art. Vuillard, who was both a contemporary and an admirer of Cézanne, utilizes delicate yet precise strokes to depict the textures of Cézanne's beard and the furrows of his aged skin, adding to the emotional intensity of the portrait.The composition emphasizes the thoughtful expression in Cézanne's eyes, suggesting a man who deeply contemplates his surroundings, his art, and perhaps his legacy. Édouard Vuillard's rendering not only honors Paul Cézanne as an individual but also celebrates his enduring influence on artists of Vuillard's generation.

Jean-Édouard Vuillard (11 November 1868 – 21 June 1940) was a French painter, decorative artist, and printmaker. From 1891 through 1900, Vuillard was a prominent member of the avant garde artistic group Les Nabis, creating paintings that assembled areas of pure color. His interior scenes, influenced by Japanese prints, explored the spatial effects of flattened planes of color, pattern, and form. As a decorative artist, Vuillard painted theater sets, panels for interior decoration, and designed plates and stained glass. After 1900, when the Nabis broke up, Vuillard adopted a more realistic style, approaching landscapes and interiors with greater detail and vivid colors. In the 1920s and 1930s, he painted portraits of prominent figures in French industry and the arts in their familiar settings.

Vuillard was influenced by Paul Gauguin, among other post-impressionist painters.
