Young Italian Woman at a Table 1895 - 1900

"Young Italian Woman at a Table" is a painting by Paul Cézanne, created between 1895 and 1900. This piece exemplifies Cézanne's signature Post-Impressionist style, with its emphasis on geometric shapes and bold color application. The woman, depicted in a pensive pose, is rendered with Cézanne's characteristic flat planes and simplified forms, creating a sense of solidity and monumentality. The patterned cloth and contrasting colors further enhance the painting's composition. This work, while adhering to his stylistic principles, also showcases Cézanne's interest in portraying the human figure.
