Seated Man 1900

"Seated Man" is a 1900 oil painting by Paul Cézanne, a key figure in Post-Impressionism. The painting depicts a seated man, likely a local worker, in a three-quarter view. Cézanne's signature style, with its fragmented brushstrokes and simplified forms, is evident in the depiction of the man's clothing, the chair, and the partially obscured background. This work showcases Cézanne's emphasis on structure and geometric shapes, a characteristic of his artistic exploration of form and light.
