Paul Cezanne
You say a new era in art is preparing you sensed it coming continue your studies without weakening. God will do the rest.
Paul Cezanne
I am the primitive of the method I have invented.
Paul Cezanne
Talks on art are almost useless. The work which goes to bring progress in one's own subject is sufficient compensation for the incomprehension of imbeciles.
Paul Cezanne
