Book Description
Paul Cezanne, perhaps more than any Impressionist, felt an attachment to his birthplace that would endure throughout his lifetime. From the farmhouse where he was raised at Jas de Bouffan to his final home at Lauves, his native region of Provence would provide both the creative and physical sustenance necessary to fuel his unique artistic vision. In a letter, Cezanne once wrote of Provence, "When you are born there, you're done for. Nothing else is appealing."

Given that so much has been written on the Impressionists and their era, this charming volume takes a different approach and explores simultaneously the art and food of 19th-century France. As an inspired culinary and cultural account of the Impressionist era, this fun and fascinating tour through Normandy, Brittany, Provence, Fontainebleau, and Paris features an entertaining text on the artworks and lifestyles of its most famous painters--Monet, Toulouse-Lautrec, Morisot, Cézanne, Manet, Guaguin, and Degas, among many others. There are also 100 recipes for regional fare, emphasizing the notion that great art, like great food, should be savored. The delectable combination of food and art stimulates the senses in a surprising way, more genuinely evoking what it was like to be alive at the time of the Impressionists than any critical study I've read.Customer Reviews:
