The three exhibitions were: London 12 April to August 1988, Paris 20 September to 31 December 1988, and Washington 29 January to 30 April 1989. This exhibition reveals the immense diversity of Cezanne's creative imagination. It also shows us the richness and beauty of the quasi-expressionist technique that characterizes his work prior to the influence of orthodox impressionism and the concomitant emergence of his more characteristic constructive brushstroke in the mid-1870S. For more than a century, Cezanne's early work has been both controversial and perplexing to most viewers. However, in the careful examination of a large number of early works of great quality, the exhibition confirms the artist as a painter and draftsman of remarkable and consistent stature from the very beginning of his career. Contents: Foreword, Lenders to the Exhibition, Acknowledgements, Photographic Acknowledgements, Editorial Note, Introduction, The Early Work of Paul Cezanne, Parisian Writers and the Early Work of Cezanne, Literature Music and Cezanne's Early Subjects, La Lutte d'armour, The Collector's of Cezanne's Early Work, The Catalogue, Chronology, Concordance of Works in the Exhibition, List of Exhibitions including Cezanne's Early Work, and Select Bibliography.
