Lane of Chestnut Trees at the Jas de Bouffan 1871

"Lane of Chestnut Trees at the Jas de Bouffan" (1871) by Paul Cézanne is a painting depicting a path lined with chestnut trees at the artist's home in Aix-en-Provence. Cézanne's characteristic style, characterized by geometric forms and vibrant color, is evident in the composition. The trees, rendered in a palette of emerald and deep green, create a sense of depth and structure, while the pathway is subtly illuminated by the warm light. This landscape painting embodies Cézanne's desire to capture the essence of nature through a simplified, yet expressive, approach.
