植物に囲まれた家 by Paul Cézanne, 1889-1892

Cézanne treats this house less like a solid building and more like a ghost emerging from a thicket of scratchy strokes. He was obsessed with breaking nature down into basic geometric shapes—cylinders, spheres, and cones—and here you can see him hunting for those forms in the foliage. It feels like a visual puzzle where the architecture is slowly being swallowed by the trees. This kind of loose sketching was his way of figuring out the world before committing to the heavy oils he's famous for, proving that even the 'father of modern art' started with a messy rough draft.
