Paul Cézanne ( say-ZAN, also UK: siz-AN, US: say-ZAHN, French: [p?l sezan]; 19 January 1839 – 22 October 1906) was a French artist and Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundations of the transition from the 19th-century conception of artistic endeavor to a new and radically different world of art in the 20th century.
Cézanne is said to have formed the bridge between late 19th-century Impressionism and the early 20th century's new line of artistic enquiry, Cubism.
Cézanne's often repetitive, exploratory brushstrokes are highly characteristic and clearly recognizable.
He used planes of colour and small brushstrokes that build up to form complex fields.
The paintings convey Cézanne's intense study of his subjects.
Both Matisse and Picasso are said to have remarked that Cézanne "is the father of us all".
