The long-awaited, fresh and accurate new translation of the correspondence of Paul Cezanne. For this richly-illustrated edition, Alex Danchev has gone back to the original manuscripts, clearing up decades of questionable scholarship. Cezanne was a singular thinker and an uncompromising seeker after artistic truth qualities that shine through in the letters which reveal the mans very human hopes and fears as he strove to harness his artistic passion. The result is a collection of over 250 letters, written to family, friends, fellow artists and dealers, and many major cultural figures of the late nineteenth century.
