Summary "Paul Cézanne" by Gustave Coquiot is a biographical work that seems to have been written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the life and legacy of the renowned painter Paul Cézanne, revealing insights into his background, influences, and the socio-political context of his time. Through vivid descriptions and anecdotes, it aims to explore Cézanne's journey as an artist and his struggles for recognition amid the complexities of the art world. At the start of the book, the author sets the scene in Marseille just before the outbreak of World War I, capturing the city's tense atmosphere as citizens speculate about the impending war. The narrator looks for information on Cézanne, depicting a lively backdrop filled with local color and people. As the narrative unfolds, the focus shifts to Cézanne's family lineage, detailing his upbringing and the complexities of his relationship with his father, who envisioned a more conventional career for him. The beginning establishes both a historical context and a personal connection to Cézanne’s world, inviting readers to delve deeper into his life and artistic evolution.
