In today’s New York Times, in an article by Holland Cotter titled “The Innovative Odd Couple of Cézanne and Pissarro,” I came across two sentences that I must share in light of my last night posting:
Cézanne was a furious misfit with the face of a hobbit, the mind of a scholar and the mouth of a stevedore. Pissarro … was a yippie who happened to look like a monk.
Here’s a Cézanne self-portrait and Pissarro as seen by Pissarro. What do you think?
