Man with Pipe

Paul Cézanne, 1892/1896

This painting depicts the head and shoulders of a man in profile, facing the right. His skin is painted in shades of orange, with some areas given an olive-green tint. He has a dark mustache under a straight nose, and his eye has been painted with an indistinct black oval. The man wears a tall brown hat and a light-colored shirt with a brown coat or vest over it, and the hint of a black bowtie. He has a long white pipe in his mouth. The background consists of abstract brushstrokes in dark blues and browns. The brushstrokes in the painting are all thick and visible, creating clear streaks of color.
