During the 1870s and ’80s, Cézanne divided his time between Paris and his native Provence, where he eventually resettled. There he began to paint the landscape motifs—views of rocky pine forests, a quarry, the Mediterranean coast, a half-ruined château, the valley beneath Mont Sainte-Victoire—in the distinctive style for which he is known. He showed his work little and had hardly any success commercially, but he attracted admirers among critics and writers. His still-life compositions became more audacious and his portraits more subtle. Generously sponsored by the Martin A. Ryerson Lectureship Fund and the John Walsh Lecture and Education Fund.
