Cezanne, Andrew Dasburg’s hero and inspiration, is the main impulse behind this 1911 oil landscape. 1911 saw Dasburg back in New York after his two-year sojourn in Paris among the Cubists and American expatriates. Dasburg spent time with Gertrude Stein and Morgan Russell, a painter who would develop an American spin on abstraction called Synchronism. The flat fields in defiance of classical perspective, the regular brushstrokes in layered hues, and the use of line only to delineate shadow are post-impressionist trademarks, practically Cezanne inventions. Dasburg, at this stage in his career, was working it out, groping toward his lifelong search to make the invisible patterns in the world into visible art.
