Paul Cezanne
Image
There is no light painting or dark painting, but simply relations of tones.
Paul Cezanne
Image
There is no model, there is only color.
Paul Cezanne
Image

Paul Cezanne
Image
It is impossible for emotion not to come on us in thinking of that time now flowed away.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I lack the magnificent richness of color that animates nature.
Paul Cezanne
