Landscape with Waterline 1879

"Landscape with Waterline" (1879) by Paul Cézanne depicts a serene countryside scene. This oil painting showcases Cézanne's signature style with bold brushstrokes and simplified forms, capturing the essence of the landscape. The use of geometric shapes to represent trees and buildings, and the vibrant palette of greens and blues create a sense of depth and volume. Cézanne's exploration of light and shadow adds further dimension to the composition, creating a dynamic interplay between the foreground and background. This work exemplifies Cézanne's groundbreaking contribution to Post-Impressionism, paving the way for modern art.
