Cezanne was born in 1839 in the provincial city of Aix en Provence.
The hero is recognizable as a composite of Cezanne, Manet (who could not object, having died three years before), and the typical concept of the artist as a bohemian renegade from society.
Such drawings as have remained from Cezanne's early days as a student are vigorous, rather blocky, with a concentration on massive, simplified forms within the slightly bulging contours of the baroque manner Cezanne admired at the time.

 Paul Cézanne
The French painter Paul Cézanne is regarded today as one of the great forerunners of modern painting, both for the way that he evolved of putting down on canvas exactly what his eye saw in nature and for the qualities of pictorial form that he achieved through a unique treatment of space, mass, and color.
He was the greatest single influence on both the French artist Henri Matisse, who admired his use of color, and the Spanish artist Pablo Picasso, who developed Cézanne's planar compositional structure into the cubist style.
Cézanne's heirs felt that the naturalistic painting of impressionism had become formularized, and a new and original style, however difficult it might be, was needed to return a sense of sincerity and commitment to modern art.

He contributes numerous anecdotes from Cezanne's personal correspondence; this, combined with biographical details and a healthy imagination, leads him to his conclusions about the sexual and psychological intricacies of Cezanne's apple motif and his portrayals of women.
In keeping with the title of his chapter on Cezanne's practice, virtually no mention is made of the particular subject matter or meaning behind the paintings, and indeed, biographical details are only included when they can serve to support Schiff's theory of the constructed nature of the artist's "naive" vision.
Duret focused on what Cezanne actually wished him to see." [4] Schiff's main thesis, that Cezanne's 'originality' was in fact a construct of his artistic theory, comes across resoundingly; nonetheless, as with Schapiro's article, the reader is left questioning whether the one-sided nature of the discussion was truly necessary.

 Paul Cézanne - Famous Paintings and Painters from around the world
French painter, one of the greatest of the Postimpressionists, whose works and ideas were influential in the aesthetic development of many 20th-century artists and art movements, especially Cubism.
Cezanne's art, misunderstood and discredited by the public during most of his life, grew out of Impressionism and eventually challenged all the conventional values of painting in the 19th century through its insistence on personal expression and on the integrity of the painting itself.
Ambroise Vollard, the dealer who arranged Cezanne's first one-man show a century ago, posed 115 times for a single painting, sitting absolutely still "like an apple" and then Cézanne, dissatisfied, abandoned the picture with only two unpainted spots remaining.

 Post Impressionism
Paul Cezanne was much less scientific in his approach to painting than was Seurat.
All of this is more purposeful than one might normally conclude, for it adds a sense of tension to the artwork, which prevents the "still" life from being quite as static.
Cezanne's decision to defy the laws of perspective (and gravity) will greatly influence Picasso and Braque's invention of cubism (look especially at his landscapes, below, to see this relationship).
