Drawing on a broad foundation in the history of nineteenth-century
French art, Richard Shiff offers an innovative interpretation of
Cezanne's painting. He shows how Cezanne's style met the emerging
criteria of a "technique of originality" and how it satisfied
critics sympathetic to symbolism as well as to impressionism.
Expanding his study of the interaction of Cezanne and his critics,
Shiff considers the problem of modern art in general. He locates
the core of modernism in a dialectic of making (technique) and
finding (originality). Ultimately, Shiff provides not only
clarifying accounts of impressionism and symbolism but of a modern
classicism as well.
