More quotes by Paul Cezanne

Image
See nature in terms of the cone, the cylinder, and the sphere.
Paul Cezanne
Image
One had to immerse oneself in one's surroundings and intensely study nature or one's subject to understand how to recreate it.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I advance all of my canvas at one time.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I am a pupil of Pissarro.
Paul Cezanne
Image
There is no light painting or dark painting, but simply relations of tones.

Image
Keep good company - that is, go to the Louvre.
Paul Cezanne
Image
What I am trying to translate to you is more mysterious, it is entwined in the very roots of being, in the implacable source of sensations.
Paul Cezanne
Image
The truth is in nature, and I shall prove it.
Paul Cezanne
Image
All the theories mess you up inside.
Paul Cezanne
Image
Everything vanishes, falls apart, doesn't it? Nature is always the same but nothing in her that appears to us lasts. Our art must render the thrill of her permanence, along with her elements, the appearance of all her changes. It must give us a taste of her Eternity.
Paul Cezanne
Image
Perhaps I was born too early. I was more the painter of your generation than of mine.
Paul Cezanne
Image
An art which isn't based on feeling isn't an art at all.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I am not altogether displeased with the shirt-front.
Paul Cezanne
Image
Painting is damned difficult - you always think you've got it, but you haven't.
Paul Cezanne
Image
Right now a moment of time is fleeting by! Capture its reality in paint! To do that we must put all else out of our minds. We must become that moment, make ourselves a sensitive recording plate...Give the image of what we actually see, forgetting everything that has been seen before our time.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I am progressing very slowly, for nature reveals herself to me in very complex forms and the progress needed is incessant.
Paul Cezanne
Image
To paint is not to copy the object slavishly, it is to grasp a harmony among many relationships.
Paul Cezanne
Image
What is one to think of those fools who tell one that the artist is always subordinate to nature? Art is a harmony parallel with nature.
Paul Cezanne
Image
We live in a rainbow of chaos.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I wish to die painting.
Paul Cezanne
