樹木與灌木
1883-1887
Paul Cézanne was obsessed with the underlying geometry of nature, and you can see that search for structure in this scratchy, energetic sketch. A massive tree trunk dominates the right side, rendered with quick, diagonal hatching that gives it a sense of weight against the looser foliage. He famously preferred painting trees over people because they were patient models that didn't complain about standing still for hours! This Post-Impressionist study reveals how the master built up his famous landscapes layer by layer, treating every leaf and branch as a puzzle piece.
