Informationen zum Autor Michael Doran , who is both an art historian and a practicing artist, was formerly the Librarian of the Courtauld Institute in London. Klappentext "This is an extraordinary book. It not only contains all the accounts written by those who met Cézanne and spoke with him (including several 'interviews' with the painter), but it also puts these accounts in perspective."—Yves-Alain Bois, Harvard University "Doran's collection of diverse primary sources recording Cézanne's theories and the early critical reception of his art is an essential monument in the painter's bibliography, previously not accessible. And Gowing's thoughtful essay serves as a superb model for how such primary material should be consulted."—Mary Tompkins Lewis, author of Cézanne Zusammenfassung This work gathers together texts by contemporaries of Paul Cezanne (1839-1906) - including artists, critics and writers - that illuminate the painter's philosophy of art, particularly in his later years.
