Still Life with Ginger Jar Sugar Bowl and Oranges is a 1902 oil by Paul Cezanne, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a still life arrangement of everyday objects on a table. The items include a white ginger jar, a sugar bowl, and a plate of oranges. The objects are placed on a tablecloth with a floral pattern, which adds a pop of color to the scene. The painting is rendered in a style that emphasizes bold brushstrokes and vivid colors. The artist has used a range of hues to capture the textures and tones of the objects, from the smoothness of the ceramics to the roughness of the oranges. The painting is a beautiful example of Paul Cézanne's work, and it can be found at the Museum of Modern Art.
Paul Cézanne was born on January 19, 1839, in Aix-en-Provence, the son of a hatter turned wealthy banker.
