Large Pine 1905

Paul Cézanne's "Large Pine" is a watercolor painting that captures the essence of a lone tree, its branches reaching out against a light background. This 1905 work, characteristic of Cézanne's later period, showcases his focus on simplified forms and the interplay of color and line. The brushstrokes are bold and visible, emphasizing the solidity of the tree and its textured bark. Cézanne's distinct style, often described as Post-Impressionist, is evident in the painting's subtle use of color and its exploration of light and shadow. "Large Pine" is a testament to Cézanne's masterful ability to translate nature into abstract compositions.
