Two Heads 1890 - 1896

"Two Heads" is a pencil sketch on paper by Paul Cézanne, created between 1890 and 1896. This work, characteristic of Cézanne's artistic exploration, features two heads in profile, their features rendered with deliberate strokes and a sense of volume. The use of hatched lines and the emphasis on form are hallmarks of Cézanne's style, foreshadowing the development of Cubism. This intimate sketch, executed in a minimalist fashion, exemplifies Cézanne's fascination with the human form and his desire to break free from traditional representational techniques.
