Description of the artwork
Œuvre : Underwood
Artiste : Paul Cézanne
Musée : Art Gallery of Ontario
Dimensions : 561 x 464 cm
Created at the end of the 19th century, in the city of Aix-en-Provence, this painting is at the heart of the Impressionist movement, while transcending it through a unique approach to form and color. Currently exhibited at the Art Gallery of Ontario, this canvas embodies the spirit of an era where light and nature conversed, offering an unprecedented visual experience.
“I am always amazed by the light dancing in the foliage,” said Cézanne, perhaps inspired by a gentle spring morning while walking in the underwood. This pictorial work feeds on this escape, echoing his own need for harmony between man and nature.
In this painting, Cézanne explores the depth of the underwood, enveloping the viewer in an atmosphere of soothing calm. The trees, majestic and imposing, rise gracefully, while a diffused light filters through the foliage, creating a lively composition where each element seems to converse with the other, like a visual symphony.
Considered an important milestone in Cézanne's career, this canvas marks a period of maturity where the artist merges the figurative and the abstract. In parallel with his iconic paintings like “Mont Sainte-Victoire” and “The Large Bathers,” Underwood reveals a notable technical evolution, marrying harmony and structure.
Cézanne's technique, a subtle blend of impasto and layering, gives this painting an unmatched depth and emotional richness. Each brushstroke vibrates with light, transforming this painting into a living tableau, where texture mingles with light to evoke the serenity of an underwood.
In its mix of lush greens and earthy browns, the palette of this canvas evokes feelings of freshness and calm. The nuances of light, ranging from gold to deep green, create an immersive atmosphere where each shade tells a story of nature and tranquility.
Each reproduction is made with meticulous care, in oil on museum-quality linen canvas. The creation begins with a manual sketch, followed by successive layers using high-quality pigments like Prussian blue and alizarin crimson, taking about 40 hours of work. The painter's gesture respecting the original proportions and the soul of the work makes this reproduction a faithful tribute to Cézanne. A protective UV varnish ensures the durability of the color, allowing the painting to retain all its splendor.
