Pool and Lane of Chestnut Trees at Jas de Bouffan — Fine Art

A lane runs between chestnut trees toward a still pool at Jas de Bouffan. Short separate strokes of green and brown follow the tree trunks and the water edge. The painting of Paul Cézanne uses slow colour shifts to build the ground and the sky.

This fine art print has a frame with a white, wood, dark wood or black finish. The frame gives the picture a clear edge on the wall. A white frame keeps the greens soft against the wood of the trees. A dark wood frame puts a firm line around the lane and the pool.

On a kitchen wall near the sink the pool reads first, then the trees step back. From the table you notice the separate strokes in the leaves. The lane leads the eye toward the quiet water.
