Cézanne my PARIS

French painter Paul Cézanne (1839 - 1906) is probably bettern known for his paintings illustrating the Provence region of France but he actually lived more than half of his life in Paris and its suburbs.  He traveled between Aix-en-Provence and Paris more than 20 times!  The Musée du Luxembourg , in collaboration with the Petit Palais, Musée des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris, is currently presenting an exhibition that reunites 80 of Cézanne's works that show his relationship with the City of Light, from his different interpretations in his paintings.  The exhibition opened yesterday and will run through February 26th, 2012.  Do you have the same view of Paris as Cézanne?
