The Artist's Son Writing is a 1887 graphite by Paul Cezanne, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a simple drawing of a boy writing at a desk. The boy is focused on his work, and the drawing is very detailed. The artist used simple lines to create a sense of depth and texture, which is interesting because it shows how much can be done with just a pencil. Check out the work of artist: Cezanne, Paul.
Paul Cézanne was born on January 19, 1839, in Aix-en-Provence, the son of a hatter turned wealthy banker.
