Karaf en kom
Paul Cézanne loved painting everyday objects, and here he gives us a masterclass in seeing the world differently. Notice how the graphite pencil lines peek right through the watery washes of blue and yellow? He wasn't trying to make a perfect photograph; he was building the 'architecture' of the scene, showing us how the glass carafe and the floral bowl sit solidly in space. This loose, sketchy style became a huge inspiration for the Cubists later on, proving that sometimes the unfinished look is the most powerful one.
