EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Paul Cezanne's oil on canvas masterpiece, "Antoine Dominique Sauveur Aubert, the Artist's Uncle, as a Monk". Painted in 1866 and measuring 65.1x54.6 cm, this artwork is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The subject of this portrait is the artist's maternal uncle, Dominique Aubert, who was born in 1817. In this painting, he is depicted wearing the traditional habit of a Dominican monk. The religious symbolism is evident through his pose and the presence of a crucifix. Cezanne's attention to detail shines through in every brushstroke; from his meticulously rendered moustache and beard to the carefully crafted expression on his uncle's face. This work exemplifies Cezanne's mastery of impressionism and captures a moment frozen in time. The French Impressionist movement heavily influenced Cezanne's style, evident here with its loose brushwork and emphasis on capturing light and atmosphere. The composition exudes an air of tranquility while simultaneously evoking curiosity about Dominique Aubert’s inner thoughts. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to France during the late 19th century when religion played a significant role in society. Through Cezanne’s artistic vision, we can appreciate not only his technical skill but also gain insight into the spiritual world that inspired him.
