Paul Cezanne French Painting Basket of Apples Postcard

History's greatest paintings, digitally restored, brightened and recolored for today by Artful Living! Gold accents on the back enhance the artistic appearance of this Cezanne postcard. The Basket of Apples is a still life oil painting by French artist Paul Cézanne. The piece is often noted for its disjointed perspective. It has been described as a balanced composition due to its unbalanced parts; the tilted bottle, the incline of the basket, and the foreshortened lines of the cookies mesh with the lines of the tablecloth. Additionally, the right side of the tabletop is not in the same plane as the left side, as if the image simultaneously reflects two viewpoints. Paintings such as this helped form a bridge between Impressionism and Cubism.
