Cézanne, Paul

Le Mont Sainte-Victoire

1902-06 (120 Kb); Pencil and watercolor on white paper, 42.5 x 54.3 cm (16 3/4 X 21 3/8 in); The Museum of Modern Art, New York

This watercolor is extremely accomplished; it is executed in vivid, most carefully contrasted colors. Though its composition may be related to several other views of Mont Sainte-Victoire, this one has a beauty all its own, radiant with a spiritual force.
