He loves the geometry of the apple &#8211; the sphere found in nature &#8211; but instead of coldly drawing it with a compass, his eye lovingly follows its contours, and his imagination passionately reconstructs the roundness and fullness of the fruit&#8217;s form.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">There are anecdotal remarks in this story, which paint a very interesting picture to that period in time. C\u00e9zanne was adopting a style quite at odds with his personality. As if Cezanne, by trying to become constructive, created Modernist Art. He almost seems incidental to his greatness. <a href=\"http:\/\/arts.guardian.co.uk\/critic\/feature\/0,,1872024,00.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Read Jones&#8217;s article &#8220;Murder, Lust, and Landscapes&#8221;&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">If you&#8217;re in London between 4 October 2006 and 7 January 2007, drop by the <a href=\"http:\/\/golondon.about.com\/od\/walkingtoursoflondon\/ss\/TraflagarSquare_4.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">National Gallery<\/a> to see the painting in the exhibition <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/exhibitions\/cezanne\/default.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">C\u00e9zanne in Britain<\/a> (admission is free).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paul C\u00e9zanne is a painter mostly associated with serene landscapes, but what is the reason?
