Produktbeschreibungen
From Booklist
You may hesitate, as we did, at the sight of yet another book about Cezanne, but this handsomely produced retrospective volume is without question the grandest of them all. The superb reproductions (258 in the best color and crispest focus this reviewer has ever seen and 350 in rich black-and-white) document the artist's entire revolutionary oeuvre, from his earliest pencil drawings to his watercolors, sketchbooks, and magnificent paintings. The commentary, based on meticulous research by Cachin--curator, scholar, and president of the National Museums of France--and her esteemed colleagues, is of the highest order, penetrating and illuminating in its interpretations of the man, his work, and his enormous influence on modern art.

From Library Journal
In the catalog to the Cezanne exhibition showing in Paris, London, and Philadelphia, Director of the Musees de France Cachin, Philadelphia Museum of Art curator Joseph J. Rishel, and staff at the Musee d'Orsay have taken great care in presenting the multifaceted and enigmatic genius. The bulk of the book is taken up by over 175 color and many black-and-white reproductions of every piece in the show, segmented by decade and accompanied by informative essays authored by organizing committee members. The authors also provide a glimpse of the artist through his own words as well as many anecdotal commentaries and work by historical figures who knew him. The development of Cezanne criticism is briefly traced from its early days to its present-day esteem for the artist. The chronology is detailed, illustrated, and authoritative. The book is a prelude to John Rewald's forthcoming and much-awaited The Paintings of Paul Cezanne: A Catalogue Raisonee (Abrams, 1996). As such, and as a record of the long overdue, large-scale retrospective, it is a worthwhile addition to all modern art and comprehensive collections.?Ellen Bates, New York Charles Rennie Mackintosh.

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
The clumsy, poorly written text in the first few chapters is almost impossible to read. Since it's so disjointed and quotes too much from Cezanne's personal letters or from other writings, I skipped over a large portion of this. I was also surprised that the authors tried to make Cezanne into some sort of religious deity, rather than a master of his art; it could be marketing hype accompanying the show, but Cezanne's work speaks for itself. In spite of these flaws, the painting and sketches are wonderfully reproduced, and the accompanying description is pretty good. But because the accompanying description is always laudatory and doesn't adequately talk about his mistakes, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish between Cezanne's masterpieces and his OK work. The best part is learning what other artist, such as Monet and Matisse, owned what Cezanne painting (and then trying to speculate on why they liked a painting so much).
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is a must for art lovers, in general, and for 19th cent. french art lovers, specifically. Rich in colour images and a detailed editorial on each piece. Also gives the history of ownership.
Absolutely wonderful. A must.

A book worthy of "the father of us all"
15. März 2001
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Picasso, speaking about modern art and artists, referred to Cezanne as "the father of us all." He was that rare artist whose vision -and ability to express it- was so keen and unique that it can actually impact the way we se the world around us. (How often I look into the trees and think "that looks like a Cezanne.") More than any other book of his work this volume succeeds in showing the sweep and depth of Cezanne's genius. The reproductions are superb and plentiful. The descriptive text accompanying each image, while interesting, needs to be taken with a grain of salt, as is often the case in catalogues of this nature. But the truth is I buy art books for the pictures! For text, try Rewald's book which is also excellent and contains some paintings not elsewhere printed, and deals extensively with the relationship between Cezanne and Zola. I also recommend Gotz Adriani's book on Cezanne. But if you can only have one, this is it.
