Gustave Courbet, French 1819-1877, painted the “Still Life with Apples and a Pear” in 1871 with oil on canvas.
Paul Cezanne, French, 1839-1906, painted his version of Still Life with Apples and a Glass of Wine” in 1877. It is also an oil on canvas.
Another Cezanne that we saw while at the Philadelphia Museum was this “Still Life with Flowers in an Olive Jar” that he painted in 1880.
Cezanne painted a variety of subjects from fruit to flowers to people.
And you can see that he worked in a variety of styles. The Large Bathers, painted in 1906, just before he died, is a large oil on canvas painting. You can hear more about it by dialing into the PMA cell phone program at 267-519-5646 and this painting is number 932.
