More quotes by Paul Cezanne
With a painter's temperament, all that's needed are the means of expression sufficient to be intelligible to the wide public.
Paul Cezanne
To paint is not to copy the object slavishly, it is to grasp a harmony among many relationships.
Paul Cezanne
Time and reflection change the sight little by little 'till we come to understand.
Paul Cezanne
I ask you to pray for me, for once age has overtaken us, we find consolation only in religion.
Paul Cezanne
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
Sometimes I imagine colors as if they were living ideas, being of pure reason with which to communicate. Nature is not on the surface, it is deep down.
Paul Cezanne
Painting, like any art, comprises a technique, a workmanlike handling of material, but the accuracy of a tone and the fictitious combination of effects depend entirely on the choice made by the artist.
Paul Cezanne
See nature in terms of the cone, the cylinder, and the sphere.
Paul Cezanne
The painter must enclose himself within his work he must respond not with words, but with paintings.
Paul Cezanne
I have not tried to reproduce nature I have represented it.
Paul Cezanne
I am progressing very slowly, for nature reveals herself to me in very complex forms and the progress needed is incessant.
Paul Cezanne
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
The Louvre is a good book to consult, but it must only be an intermediary. The real and immense study that must be taken up is the manifold picture of nature.
Paul Cezanne
The clear French landscape is as pure as a verse of Racine.
Paul Cezanne
Knowledge of the means to express our emotion is essential- and is acquired only after a very long experience.
Paul Cezanne
All the theories mess you up inside.
Paul Cezanne
Keep good company - that is, go to the Louvre.
Paul Cezanne
The world doesn't understand me and I don't understand the world, that's why I've withdrawn from it.
Paul Cezanne
The strong experience of nature... is the necessary basis for all conception of art on which rests the grandeur and beauty of all future work.
Paul Cezanne
The contour eludes me.
Paul Cezanne
