{"product_id":"tableau-bassin-jas-bouffan-paul-cezanne","title":"The Pool at Jas de Bouffan – Paul Cézanne","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThree trunks open onto a secret clearing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCézanne’s Pool at Jas de Bouffan places the eye beneath \u003cstrong\u003etall trees with deep foliage\u003c\/strong\u003e. Their trunks cross the entire scene, forming a natural threshold before the pool, its low fountain and balustrade. Farther back, a pale house appears between the branches: this succession of planes gives the garden peaceful depth, as though one had left the heat of Aix-en-Provence to enter shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlue-green tones, violet browns and a few ochre glimmers form a cool harmony. The visible strokes fix nothing in place: they make the air vibrate around the \u003cstrong\u003ediscreet fountain\u003c\/strong\u003e, suggest the foliage and the light filtering down to the ground. Painted around 1885–1886, this view reveals an intimate Jas de Bouffan, far from the bright Provençal landscape one might expect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePlant-filled depth to structure a living room\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn an interior, this \u003cstrong\u003ehorizontal canvas\u003c\/strong\u003e creates an opening rather than a simple touch of colour. Hung behind a living room’s main seating, the trees balance a broad wall while the pool gently holds the eye; a sideboard or low desk can also provide a fitting anchor. An off-white, stone beige or sage-green setting will extend its nuances without darkening the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMedium-toned wood, ecru linen and matte ceramics respond to it naturally. In a living room, it provides a visual refuge; in a study, its stable construction encourages a composed atmosphere. The \u003cstrong\u003edeep greens punctuated with greyed lavender\u003c\/strong\u003e have enough presence to animate the décor without imposing a strident colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe shaded calm of Jas de Bouffan\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York holds the reference painting. This canvas reproduction reveals how Cézanne’s Pool at Jas de Bouffan builds space through coloured masses. Its \u003cstrong\u003eintimate perspective\u003c\/strong\u003e invites a long look at the passages between shade, water and house. Choose it to give a room a cultivated, vegetal breathing space with a lasting sense of calm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art Virtuoso","offers":[{"title":"46 × 31 cm","offer_id":55040798130505,"sku":"28699637389712941392","price":79.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"61 × 41 cm","offer_id":55040798163273,"sku":"20359898824273385549","price":89.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"76 × 51 cm","offer_id":55040798196041,"sku":"21451382904173074994","price":99.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"91 × 61 cm","offer_id":55040798228809,"sku":"13912047717863676261","price":129.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"122 × 81 cm","offer_id":55040798261577,"sku":"31351984160056709010","price":249.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/9651\/9753\/files\/tableau-bassin-jas-bouffan-paul-cezanne-mockup-salle-a-manger.webp?v=1787341618","url":"https:\/\/art-virtuoso.com\/en\/products\/the-pool-at-jas-de-bouffan-paul-cezanne","provider":"Art Virtuoso","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
