Mont Sainte-Victoire Seen beyond the Wall of the Jas de Bouffan

Paul Cézanne, c. 1885/1888

This artwork presents a view of Mont Sainte-Victoire as seen beyond a wall, with a composition framed by several tall trees. The perspective is elevated, allowing a glimpse of the mountain in the distance, partially obscured by trees. The horizon is situated towards the upper third of the painting, where the mountain meets the sky. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, with a sketch-like quality. The color palette is soft and muted, consisting primarily of earthy tones and light blues, with hints of green and red.
