Cezanne’s Garden

The award-winning author of VAN GOGH’S GARDENS returns with a sumptuously illustrated book showcasing the garden and art of one of the most significant painters of the Impressionist Era. Acclaimed garden writer and photographer Derek Fell continues his celebrated series with a handsome volume featuring the paintings of Cezanne and stunning photographs of his restored garden, which attracts nearly 100,000 visitors each year. This beautifully illustrated book takes a groundbreaking approach to the man and his art. Using images of Cezanne’s studio and gardens in Aix-en-Provence as a starting point, Fell shares the artist’s innovative theories about structure, texture, shadow, and light. Through Cezanne’s musings and philosophy of colour and form – captured vividly by the author – the reader enters the artist’s creative world, and visits the vertical and architectural gardens Cezanne loved, along with Mt. Sainte-Victoire, the mountain he immortalized in his paintings. A visually breathtaking tour through Cezanne’s beautifully preserved garden and lavish gardens inspired by his work, the book features over a dozen paintings and more than a hundred original colour photographs. CEZANNE’S GARDEN is a revealing look at one of the world’s most beloved Impressionist masters.
