C?zanne routinely interrupted his work with a model to go back to the Louvre or to consult sketches and studies he did after the old masters. Exploring the importance of C?zanne's involvement with the art of the past in essays devoted to Poussin, Chardin, and Rubens, Locke argues that C?zanne's art cannot be understood without an investigation into what he made of these earlier models and how they continued to haunt even his mature work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eC?zanne's Shadows\u003c\/i\u003e offers an elegant new model for understanding the relationship between modernist painting and the creative tradition it often feigns to reject. This study of artistic ambitions and an analysis of nineteenth-century art writing will be especially valuable to scholars of modernism and European art history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nancy Locke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penn State University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/22\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 8.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780271098791","brand":"Penn State University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43914058334345,"sku":"9780271098791","price":104.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_b49ecda4-7042-4f57-a203-5a99fe60c92e.jpg?v=1745298987","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/czannes-shadows-poussin-chardin-rubens-9780271098791","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
