Paul Cezanne was described as the father of us all by Pablo Picasso, as he was greatly influenced by Cezanne, and Picasso doesnt stand alone. Cezanne, the French artist from Aix-en-Provence, was depicted as a visionary ahead of his time, Cezannes innovative style, use of perspective, composition, and color profoundly influenced 20th century art. Cezanne is responsible for the French movement, Post-Impressionism, or the response against Impressionism. Also, for Cezanne produced art as early as the 1860s, but this paper will concentrate on his work during the period of 1890-1905, when he lived permanently in Provence. A description of Cezannes artistic style will help interpret the paintings, (list paintings). Anyone of such fame and notoriety has to begin somewhere, and for Cezanne it was January 19, 1839, in Aix-en-Provence
