About this title

Synopsis

This book had its provenance in the late 1920s, when Erle Loran, then a young artist who wanted to fathom the mysteries of C�zanne's structural form, took up residence in the master's studio in Aix-en-Provence. For several years he lived there and painted, and when he came across familiar motifs in the countryside, he took snapshots of the setting. These photographs assisted Loran in his analysis of C�zanne's composition and served as the basis for this book, which analyzes over 30 of C�zanne's paintings. This new edition brings Loran's milestone study up-to-date with a new foreword by art historian Richard Shiff, who places Loran's work into today's art historical context.

From the Inside Flap

Praise for the first edition:

I have learned a great deal from his book about modern painting in general. [Loran] devotes his attention mainly to C�zanne's concrete means and methods, and he arrives thereby at an understanding of C�zanne's art more essential than any other I have seen in print.” Clement Greenberg, Nation
