Description
"Paysage a Auvers" was published posthumously in Paris in 1914 in an edition of 600 total impressions by Bernheim-Jeune for inclusion in their publication "Cezanne". Early proofs done in 1873, with the scratch in the upper right corner, are rare. None were signed by Cezanne.

The subject of this image is allegedly the only etching Cezanne did that roughly related to the composition of one of his paintings, with the same title, the entrance into a farm on the rue Saint-Remy. Cezanne gave the painting to Camille Pissarro as a gift.

Cezanne created a tension in this small composition by the use of a slanting tree and a horizontal, deeply bitten fence and farmhouse and letting the image drift away to the distance. This impression has strong printed lines that stand off the paper.
