Shades of Orange with Many Greens: Visions of Paul Cézanne concerns the years before the artist was vindicated. Painter and art historian Walter E. Thompson brings together the work and personality of Cezanne in an engaging manner, permitting the reader to experience this iconic giant in stimulating ways. Thompson creates an emotionally charged setting in which Cézanne faces his inner demons and real life antagonists. In an amalgam of invented persons and places mixed with those from historical record, Cézanne relives some of the most stressful and decisive moments in his life. Be with him as he studies the visual complexities of the objects he paints.
