Hardcover. Olive & BW illus. boards, matching dust jacket, illus. flyleaves, 530 pp., many BW and color illus.; weighs 7 lbs. Issued in conjunction with a 2012-2013 exhibition: the first show in Hungary to explore the oeuvre of French painter Paul Cezanne (1839-1906). "Cezanne is one of the greatest masters and, nowadays, among the most famous painters in art history. Nevertheless, only a small section of his work is known. We focus upon one decade of Cezanne as he synthesized the painting of past centuries and laid the foundations of modern art. By outlining his career of nearly half a century, we examine how the artist discovered the art of Old Masters personally and how, with their aid, he discovered his own." (foreword) With 16 essays that regard Cezanne's relationship with the masters, with museum, and how he was received. A mammoth and uncommon work, and a vital one for Cezanne-ians.
