An illuminating analysis ofthe work of Paul Cézanne,one of the most influentialpainters in the history ofmodern art, by T. J. Clark,one of the worlds mostrespected art historians.

For many artists and writers, the art of Paul Cézanne represents the key to modernity. His paintings were a touchstone for writers such as Samuel Beckett as much as for artists such as Henri Matisse. Rainer Maria Rilke revered him deeply, as did Pablo Picasso. They thought if they lost touch with his sense of life, they lost an essential element of their own self-understanding.If These Apples Should FallAt the heart of Cézannes work lies a sense of disquiet: a hopelessness haunting the vividness, an anxiety beneath the splendid colors. Clark addresses this strangeness head-on, examining the art of Camille Pissarro, Matisse, and others in relation to Cézannes. Above all, he speaks to the uncanniness and beauty of Cézannes achievement.
