The painting Montagne Sainte-Victoire by Paul Cézanne shows the iconic mountain in Provence, France. Cézanne painted this mountain several times from different angles, emphasizing his fascination with the landscape and the way he interpreted nature in an innovative way. The work is an excellent example of his transition to a more geometric and abstract representation of reality, simplifying the shapes in nature into basic structures such as cones, cylinders and spheres. The combination of a serene depiction of nature and the use of thick, layered brushstrokes creates depth and dynamism in the painting.
Cézanne's approach in this painting is representative of his broader influence on the development of modern art, laying the foundation for cubism. The mountain itself is not only a geographical subject, but also a way for Cézanne to capture the essence of the landscape through artistic composition and use of color.
