Je pense que ce livre concernant un artiste a été écrit par un artiste.
Souvent, les phrases ne veulent pas dire grand-chose de clairement compréhensible.
En tout cas, c'est bien ennuyeux à lire. Dommage, j'aurais aimé apprendre à aimer Cézanne davantage.

I really like this series of little books, which gives a nice introduction to each artist's life and his work along with reproductions of some of the art. They also provide a discussion of the artists' techniques, intentions, and the meaning of their works. At the end of each is a section with documents, which can be letters they wrote, articles or reviews written about them, and other artifacts which provide enlightening details. I read this one to accompany a number of novels I had read on several of the Impressionists, and it added a greater understanding of his art and what he was trying to accomplish.

This book was wonderful since it combined biographical information about Cezanne, as well as in-depth material about his aesthetic and his approach to painting. It was unconventional for the period, even among the other Impressionists, who often thought he was mad. What looks totally spontaneous in his work was often painstakingly considered and analyzed.

Full title: Cezanne Father of 20th-Century Art.
Translated from the French by Rosemary Stonehewer.
Beautifully illustrated in full color.
