Chestnut Tree and Farm 1885

Paul Cézanne’s *Chestnut Tree and Farm* (1885) is a Post-Impressionist landscape painting that exemplifies Cézanne's exploration of form and color. The painting depicts a scene from the artist's beloved Provence, featuring a farm building partially obscured by lush trees and a winding path. Cézanne’s application of thick, impasto brushstrokes and vibrant colors creates a sense of depth and solidity, contributing to his signature style known as "Cézannism." The painting is a testament to Cézanne's influence on subsequent artistic movements like Cubism.
