Summary "Le dimanche avec Paul Cézanne (souvenirs)" by Léo Larguier is a memoir written in the early 20th century. The book revolves around the author's personal experiences and reflections on his time spent with the renowned artist Paul Cézanne during the early 1900s. It offers a blend of art history, personal anecdotes, and insights into the life and character of Cézanne, portraying him as both a genius and a complex individual. The opening portion of the memoir introduces the author’s motivation to recount his memories of Paul Cézanne, spurred by reminiscences from his time as a young soldier in Aix-en-Provence around 1901. Larguier reflects on the changes in both his life and the world around him, contrasting the past with present realities. Through detailed descriptions, he paints a picture of Cézanne's personality, his daily life, and his artistic pursuits, highlighting the profound impact of their friendship, the simplicity of Cézanne's surroundings, and the struggles the artist faced. The text captures the essence of the small provincial town, where Cézanne was regarded with a mix of reverence and misunderstanding, setting the stage for a rich and thoughtful narrative about an iconic figure in art history.
