松と岩 by Paul Cézanne, 1897

Paul Cézanne’s 'Pines and Rocks' is a masterclass in breaking nature down into geometric shapes. Painted around 1897, this Post-Impressionist landscape features tall, reddish-brown pine trunks slicing through a canopy of dappled blues and greens, while massive, blocky boulders anchor the foreground. Cézanne famously wanted to 'redo Poussin after nature,' and here you can see his unique approach—treating the forest not just as a pretty scene, but as a complex puzzle of color and form that paved the way for Cubism.
