A Financial Times Book of the Year 2022 A penetrating analysis of
the work of one of the most influential painters in the history of
modern art by one of the world's most respected art historians. For
more than a century the art of Paul Cezanne was held to hold the
key to modernity. His painting was a touchstone for Samuel Beckett
as much as Henri Matisse. Rilke revered him deeply, as did Picasso.
If we lost touch with his sense of life, they thought, we lost an
essential element in our self-understanding. If These Apples Should
Fall: Cezanne and the Present looks back on Cezanne from a moment -
our own - when such judgments may seem to need justifying. What was
it, the book asks, that held Cezanne's viewers spellbound? At the
heart of Cezanne lies a sense of disquiet: a homelessness haunting
the vividness, an anxiety underlying the appeal of colour. T. J.
Clark addresses this strangeness head-on, examining the art of
Pissarro, Matisse and others in relation to it. Above all, he
speaks to the uncanniness and beauty of Cezanne's achievement.
