Great Art: Cezanne: Portraits of a Life

Series 3, episode 5

Directed by (unconfirmed)
Phil Grabsky

Tim Marlow presents a profile of Paul Cezanne (1839-1906), which seeks to understand the man who inspired such greats as Picasso and Matisse, and whose work laid the foundations for the radically different art of the 20th century. The film features correspondence from Cezanne himself - read by actor Brian Cox - and interviews with curators from the National Portrait Gallery in London, New York's Museum of Modern Art and Musée d'Orsay, Paris to build a picture of this hugely influential painter
