Untitled is a 1889 oil by Paul Cezanne, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a person sitting on a ledge by a window. They’re wearing a red vest over a light-colored shirt, with rolled-up sleeves and a striped tie. The background is dark and blurry, while the light outside makes the window glow. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the painting a textured look. The person’s face is calm, but their posture feels relaxed yet a little tense. If you like this style, check out impasto.
Paul Cézanne was born on January 19, 1839, in Aix-en-Provence, the son of a hatter turned wealthy banker.
