Toward Mont Sainte-Victoire (Vers la Montagne Sainte-Victoire) (Q28126451)

description: <p>Mont Sainte-Victoire is inextricably bound to the sense of place of Aix-en-Provence, and to the art and person of Cézanne. Here we encounter the mountain gradually, over the green plain of the Arc valley. The angled perspective of the fields and farm buildings, the clumps of trees, and the majestic mountain create a forceful rhythm countered by the soft blue sky. Cézanne explores the relationships between the nature of things and how we perceive them, through an essentially pastoral and Mediterranean theme.</p>
