Features: Paul Cézanne's life was one of relentless dedication, contemplation, and labor as a painter before his easel. He was born on January 19, 1839, in the small town of Aix in southern France. His father was a hat factory owner who later became a banker. Cézanne was born and raised in Aix, and it was there that he spent his life. During his youth, he studied in Paris, seeking role models, companions, and kindred spirits among the Louvre and the art circles. He never traveled the world or left his homeland, shielded by his wealthy father and even exempted from military service. After his father's death, he became the heir to a substantial fortune.
