Old Master Paintings, Part I. Dorotheum, Vienna. He was initially part of the Impressionist movement, but like all restless artists, moved on from convention to explore new territory.

He became one of the leading lights of post-Impressionism, and in doing so helped to pave the way for new movements such as Cubism and Expressionism. Towards the end of his life Cezanne's work began to show a morbid streak, focusing on skulls and other images of death and darkness. Still Life with Skull is a classic example of this trend in his later work, and also a fine specimen of his general approach to art. The skull sits on a table, accompanied by a white sheet and an array of fruit.

The fruit looks good enough to eat, rendered in greens, reds and yellows that look not so much painted as projected in light directly onto the canvas.
