EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait d'Ambroise Vollard" by the renowned Post-Impressionist artist Paul Cezanne, dates back to 1899. The painting depicts Henri Louis Ambroise Vollard, a prominent Parisian art dealer, seated in a country setting. Vollard is dressed in formal attire, wearing a bow tie and a well-tailored suit, which adds to his distinguished appearance. The oil painting on canvas material is currently housed at the Carnavalet Museum in Paris, one of the city's oldest museums. Vollard was a significant figure in the Parisian art scene during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was known for his keen eye for talent and his ability to discover and promote emerging artists, including Paul Cezanne himself. This portrait is a testament to their professional relationship and mutual respect. The painting's setting, with its rustic background and natural elements, contrasts sharply with Vollard's urban attire, highlighting the dichotomy between the world of art and the world outside. The use of oil painting technique adds depth and texture to the image, making it a standout piece in Cezanne's oeuvre. The portrait of Ambroise Vollard is an essential addition to any collection of French art from the 19th and 20th centuries. It offers a glimpse into the world of Parisian art dealers and their relationships with artists during a time of great cultural and artistic change. This painting is not only a valuable heritage piece but also an intriguing insight into the fashion and clothing trends of the era.
