Paul Cézanne was a French painter and a Post-Impressionist artist/painter whose career lasted from 1839-1906. An inspirational and successful artist was found in these 67 years where art was taken to a whole new level and the capibility to draw was rapidly changing. His observational drawings and artwork created the base and foundation for other artists to aspire to by applying his style and techniques into their own work, to get a better result, as they wished for. This process started happening from 19th century which would be in 1800’s and drew to an end in the 20th century as new forms of art were discovered and used in bigger projects and pieces of artwork. It is said that Paul was the bridge of artwork in the particular genre of art – Impressionism in the late 1800’s and the early 1900’s where cubism became a big part of art as new artists were trying out the techniques you need to create a cubism piece of work. It was also some of Cézanne’s idols which were Henri Matisse (an artist who was known for colour) and Pablo Picasso who was a Spanish artist who actually quoted “Cézanne is the father of us all” which automatically suggests that Paul was also in the likes of other upcoming artists who he could relate to and refer to sometimes as being their role model. Cézanne was born in the Aix-en-Provence located in the South of France on 19th January 1839, where he was brought up in a local and small village called Cesana his childhood depended on going to a church school every day with his two sisters, as he was closely emotionally related to them.
