5 ARTWORK INFORMATION Still Life with Apples and a Pot of Primroses Paul Cézanne Date:ca Medium:Oil on canvas Dimensions:28 3/4 x 36 3/8 in. (73 x 92.4 cm) Classification:Paintings Credit Line:Bequest of Sam A. Lewisohn, 1951 Accession Number: Vibrant colors were being explored in the impressionist moevement. Cézanne rarely painted flowering plants or fresh-cut bouquets, which were susceptible to wilting under his protracted gaze. Cézanne wanted to make paintings whose compositions were more tightly organized and "make of Impressionism something solid and durable, like the art of the museums". The objects in this painting, such as the apples and the tablecloth, are portrayed without the use of shadow, but through extremely subtle shifts of color. Cézanne wanted to make paintings whose compositions were more tightly organized and "make of Impressionism something solid and durable, like the art of the museums". Cézanne seems to have reserved this particular table, with its scalloped apron and distinctive bowed legs, for three of his finest still lifes of the 1890s.
