Apartment of his mother, Mrs Cezanne

30 cours Mirabeau
She took up residence here from 1895. From June to September 1897, Cézanne visited his mother and dined with her every evening: "He dines in the evening and stays over with his mother, whom he pampers and pays him tender respects. She is disabled, he takes her on outings in the car, and te enjoy the sunshine at the Jas. He carries her himself, slim and frail like a child as he is, in his arms which are still robust, from the car to her chair. He tells her thousands of affectionate jokes"
It was there that she passed away, on the 25th October 1897.
