The Hanged Man's House in Auvers (The House of the Suicide) 1873

Paul Cézanne's "The Hanged Man's House in Auvers (The House of the Suicide)" is a small, detailed oil painting depicting a rural landscape. The painting is typical of Cézanne's style, capturing the essence of the French countryside through simplified forms and color. The house, a prominent feature in the composition, is rendered with geometric precision, emphasizing the flatness of the canvas. The use of short, broken brushstrokes adds to the painting's textured quality. This work provides insight into the artist's fascination with the structure of the natural world and his development of a unique visual language.
