Oslo's National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design holds 4 works by Paul Cézanne (1839–1906) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Cézanne is often described as the father of modern art, and his work reveals why in person: the patient, methodical deconstruction of form and space that Cubism would later take further. His paintings look deceptively simple in reproduction but are extraordinarily complex in the original — the colour relationships are everything.
