information from the Barnes Foundation catalog

description: <p>In 1921, Albert Barnes bought a batch of watercolors by Paul Cézanne from Leo Stein (Gertrude Stein's brother), including this one showing the Chaîne de l'Etoile mountain range in the South of France. During recent treatment, conservators discovered a previously unknown watercolor by the artist—an unfinished sketch of trees—on the back. Cézanne often worked this way, using both sides of the pages in his sketchbooks as he walked the landscape around Aix-en-Provence.</p>
