"The lives of Gauguin and Van Gogh have blinded
the public to what is noble and complete in Cezanne's
less sensational, though
anguished, career.
It has often been true of leading modern painters
that they developed a single idea with great force.
Some one element or expressive note has been worked
out with striking effect. In Cezanne we are struck rather
by the comprehensive character of his art, although later
artists have built on a particular element of his style."
