cezanne quarry bibemus Dimensions (inches):33 x 26" (custom stretcher) represented as a small angelPainting by Paul Czanne, during the last years of his career, in the French Provence, where he was born. This canvas shows a sand extraction site that had been abandoned 60 years before, and which is now covered with all kinds of trees and vegetation. Czanne delights the viewer with a clean and fragmented image towards blurring, interspersing complementary and naturalistic colors.
