Still Life with Fruit and a Ginger Pot 1895

"Still Life with Fruit and a Ginger Pot," painted in 1895 by Paul Cézanne, is a prime example of the artist's signature style. Cézanne, a pioneer of Post-Impressionism, used a technique called "constructive color" to build form and volume through bold, geometric shapes and brushstrokes. The composition is meticulously arranged, showcasing a variety of fruit and a ginger pot resting on a table, all rendered with a sense of solidity and tangible presence. This artwork exemplifies Cézanne's commitment to representing the natural world in a new and innovative way, impacting subsequent generations of artists.
