Paul Cezanne @cezanne.bsky.social · 9h
The Bay of Marseille, Seen from L'Estaque, 1880 botfrens.com/collections/43/content…
In a letter to his friend and teacher Camille Pissarro, Paul Cézanne compared the view of the sea from L’Estaque to a playing card, with its simple shapes and colors. The landscape’s configuration and color fascinated him. This painting is one of more than a dozen such vistas created by the artist during the 1880s. Cézanne divided the canvas into four zones—architecture, water, mountain, and sky. Although these four elements are seen repeatedly in Impressionist paintings, Cézanne’s work is very different from that of his fellow artists. Whereas their primary purpose was to record the transient effects of light, Cézanne was interested in the underlying structure and composition of the views he painted. Filling the canvas with shapes defined by strong, contrasting colors and a complex grid of horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines, he created a highly compact, dynamic pattern of water, sky, land, and village that at once refers back to traditionally structured landscape paintings and looks forward to the innovations of Cubism. Using blocklike brushstrokes to build the space, Cézanne created a composition that seems both two- and three-dimensional. Not locked tightly in place, his forms appear to touch and shift continually, creating a sense of volume and space that strengthens the composition and brings it to life.

In 1841, American painter John Goffe Rand invented the collapsible paint tube, which kept colors fresh outdoors. By the 1880s, Van Gogh relied on them to work in fields and streets, making plein-air painting central to his style.

We were all sitting on the seafront, watching a black whippet that had just arrived and was galloping round the harbour beach. It made a second circuit, chasing more gulls, and charged towards a patch of water by a groyne . . . and went straight in pool of water over its head. Much laughter.
