Paul Cézanne: Gardener (Le Jardinier), Paul Cézanne, c. 1885 (possibly later), Oil on canvas, Peasants were a popular subject for French artists in the late nineteenth century. Many painters romanticized peasants, depicting rosy-cheeked figures laboring in fields saturated with golden afternoon light. Cézanne's figure is unsentimental, however. The subject is a gardener who worked on his father's estate outside Aix-en-Provence, where Cézanne lived and worked for many years. Cézanne rhymes nature with the gardener's body: the bush behind him forms a perfect oval frame, and the tree branches at right bend to follow his contours., Overall: 25 9/16 × 21 1/4 in. (65 × 54 cm).
