"Although he was born in the first half of the 1800s, Paul C璽ezanne is widely considered to be twentieth-century modernism's presiding genius. This book features ten paintings by the
artist--whom Pablo Picasso called 'the father of us all'--selected fromThe Museum of Modern Art's outstanding collection of his work... An essay by Carolyn Lanchner, a former curator of
painting and sculpture at the Museum, accompanies each work, illuminating its significance and placing it in its historical moment in the development of modern art."--P. [2] of cover.
