Cezanne's Watercolors Between Drawing And Painting. His graphite lines and watercolor washes variously converge and diverge and he explored the translucence and luminosity of watercolor across these works. These drawn lines have been largely overlooked in previous studies of Cézannes watercolors.
In this ravishing book Matthew Simms argues that it was the dialogue between drawing and paintingthe movement between the pencil and the paintbrushthat attracted Cézanne to watercolor. O mestre exerceu essa técnica de forma revolucionária. Paul Cézanne was a French artist and Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundations of the transition from the 19th-century conception of artistic endeavor to a new and radically different world of art in the 20th century.
Interspersed with several oil paintings in the central section of Cézanne and the Modern the watercolors illuminate the essence of the artists exploratory process as he stubbornly strove to capture the motif in front of him one brushstroke and pencil mark at a timein the artists words without changing position but by leaning a little to the right and then to the left.
Slowly during the 1880s watercolor became Cézannes preferred medium. The Bathers is a painting produced by Paul Cezanne between 1890 and 1891. Paul Cézannes Bathers circa 1890 pencil and watercolor on wove paper in the exhibition Cézanne Drawing at the Museum of Modern Art. Cézannes watercolors exhibit not only kaleidoscopic arrays of translucent color but also very light graphite pencil lines that contrast strikingly with the soft watery touches of color.
