Paul Cézanne
The Road Bridge at L’Estaque
From $100
This mountain glows pink and violet over blocks of green, and a flat copy turns it grey. Our Cezanne Sainte Victoire from Bellevue print was graded against the Barnes Foundation’s own photograph, so the mountain keeps its glow and the valley its greens.
Canvas, framed or paper
Stretched canvas. Printed on cotton canvas and stretched taut over a frame. The edges are mirror-wrapped, so the picture continues around the sides and none of it is lost to the fold.
Framed canvas. The same canvas, set in a black, white, natural wood or dark wood frame 0.83 in deep. The frame gives the work a finished edge and a little more presence on the wall.
Framed print. Printed on fine art matte paper and framed in solid pine, behind shatterproof plexiglass, in black, white, natural wood or dark wood. It arrives ready to hang. Framed sizes are measured on the outside of the frame.
Fine art print. Printed on 310gsm fine art matte paper, for framing your own way. It travels rolled and protected. From 18x24 inch.
Sizes
20x16 inch, 30x24 inch. Framed sizes are measured on the outside of the frame, so the visible painting is a little smaller.
On your wall
Its rosy violets and greens suit a living room, a bedroom or a study. They look lovely with blush, sage and natural wood, and a natural or white frame keeps it light.
About the painting
Mont Sainte-Victoire seen from Bellevue by Paul Cézanne
Aix-en-Provence, around 1886
Cézanne could see Mont Sainte-Victoire from his house near Aix. Ever since he had seen it from a new railway bridge in 1878, he had kept coming back to it.
The view from Bellevue
From a farm called Bellevue he looked across the valley of the Arc. The railway viaduct crosses it right of centre, farm roofs sit among the trees, and the mountain fills the sky, pink and violet in the light.
Order and clarity
He brought order and clarity to the scene without losing the true colours of what he saw. It belongs to the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia.
Read the story
Paul Cézanne could see this mountain from his house. He never got tired of looking at it.
It's around 1886, near Aix-en-Provence. Cézanne's father has just died, and his money worries are over.
He goes out to a farm called Bellevue, and looks across the valley of the river Arc.
Ever since 1878, when he saw it from the window of a train, he's been painting Mont Sainte-Victoire.
Here it is, rising huge into the sky, glowing pink and violet in the light.
Below it, the valley is a quilt of green fields and farm roofs. And right of centre, the railway viaduct crosses it, the same bridge that first showed him the view.
He brings order and clarity to the landscape, but he never loses the true colours of what he sees.
Today it belongs to the Barnes Foundation, in Philadelphia.
Look across the valley with him, and watch the mountain glow.

Questions
Is this the original painting?
No. The original hangs in a museum. What you receive is a fine art reproduction, remastered from the original and printed for you, with every mark where the artist left it.
Will the colour look flat?
This is where most reproductions disappoint, and it is where we spend the most time. Each work is graded side by side with the original: faithful to the artist’s colours, with the depth and warmth brought back, so it moves you on the wall the way it was meant to. Canvas reads a touch softer than a backlit screen, and every screen shows colour a little differently.
Will the edges be cropped?
Each size is a standard frame size, so we fit the painting by trimming a little from its edges. We never stretch or squash it, and we check every size by eye so no face, figure or signature is cut. On canvas the edges are mirror-wrapped, which keeps the whole picture on the front.
Which size is right for my wall?
Aim for about two-thirds the width of the furniture beneath it. Over a sofa or a sideboard, one of the two largest sizes will hold the wall. The size guide lists every size in inches and centimetres, with the kind of wall each one suits.
How long does it take?
Your piece is printed in 1–3 business days, then spends 5–12 business days in transit, tracked all the way. Delivery is free anywhere in the US. We are unable to deliver to PO boxes.
What if it arrives damaged?
Send us a photograph and we will remake it and send it again. There is nothing to return.
Can I return it?
Yes, within 30 days of delivery. Our returns policy has the details.
