The House of P\u00e8re Lacroix in Auvers \u2013 the year with Pissarro<\/h2>\n

This early canvas was made in 1873 at Auvers, north of Paris, when C\u00e9zanne was working alongside Camille Pissarro. The white fa\u00e7ade of the house barely breaks through the dense greenery. Our hand-painted reproduction on canvas brings this green, summery subject into your home, painted in oil on canvas.<\/p>\n

The year that changed C\u00e9zanne<\/h3>\n

Pissarro was the older colleague who persuaded C\u00e9zanne to give up the dark tones and heavy paint of his early years and to start working outdoors with a lighter palette. C\u00e9zanne later called him a fatherly figure. It was at Auvers that his painting first opened towards the light.<\/p>\n

Greenery that closes the view<\/h3>\n

The house is not the centre of the scene but the reward for a gaze that works its way through the leaves. C\u00e9zanne painted the canopy not as a mass but as a mesh of separate strokes in several shades of green, with gaps of sky and wall shining between them.<\/p>\n

What you see on the canvas<\/h3>\n

In the foreground is an overgrown garden with yellow flowers, dark trees arch above it, and in the background stands the house with its orange roof. The painter\u2019s signature is in the lower left corner. The original is painted in oil on canvas, by the collection\u2019s record measures about 51 \u00d7 61 cm, and is held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington.<\/p>\n

A summer garden for a bright room<\/h3>\n

The dense greenery is made of dozens of shades; a brushstroke by hand keeps them, print merges them into one colour. Choose among ten sizes or order to your own measurements. The subject works well in a bright room or beside plants. Look at the frame in a realistic 3D preview. Among our reproductions on canvas<\/strong> you will find other subjects from Auvers and its surroundings: Village Road, Auvers<\/a>, Road at Chantilly<\/a> and Bend in Forest Road<\/a>.<\/p>\n
