| Aix en Provence, Paul Cezanne's home town |
Paul Cézanne is unquestionably the Aix's most famous personality. After a period of Romanticism, he discovered Impressionism and then invented “a new art”, of which he called himself “the primitive”. His quest for expression is revealed through his series of works: portraits, still life, landscapes, and bathers. Painted in oil or watercolour, they all reveal the work of an obstinate craftsman. He may have left the town of Aix, but he came back stronger.
