Google Doodle Today : Paul Cézanne's birthday


Have you noticed today's Google doodle shown from the image above?

The Google doodle today was specially made for our birthday celebrant today named Paul Cézanne. Born  January 19 1839 and died October 22, 1906. According to Wikipedia, Cézanne is a French artist and Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundations of the transition from the 19th century conception of artistic endeavor to a new and radically different world of art in the 20th century. Cézanne can be said to form the bridge between late 19th century Impressionism and the early 20th century's new line of artistic enquiry, Cubism. The line attributed to both Matisse and Picasso that Cézanne "is the father of us all" cannot be easily dismissed. Read more here.
