Admirers of
Paul
Cézanne know it well, it is here that we feel the
presence of the painter with the greatest intensity. He created
his shelter there, a place of work and contemplation, from where
on sunny days, he painted in
"le
motif". On rainy days or
really cold days, Cezanne stayed in the middle of
these
familiar objects which became the models of his still life paintings : some
pottery,
bottles, vases, paper flowers
or fabrics,
fruits, mainly apples, as
well as a some skulls and
the little plaster
cupid.
Lots of works, kept in renowned museums, such as "Grandes Baigneuses",
were painted in this
studio of light and silence.
