About Ceret Lanscape

The artwork, titled “Ceret Landscape,” was created by Chaim Soutine around the year 1920. Executed in oil on canvas, this piece is a part of the expressionist movement and depicts a landscape scene. Currently, it is held in a private collection.

In “Ceret Landscape,” Soutine employs a vivid and dynamic use of color and brushwork characteristic of Expressionism. The composition appears to depict a village nestled amidst rolling hills, with structures marked by their red-tiled roofs and set against a lush, verdant background. The artist’s energetic and almost turbulent application of paint infuses the scene with a sense of movement and intensity, which is a hallmark of Soutine’s expressive style. The distorted forms and the bold, non-naturalistic colors evoke an emotional response, capturing the essence of the landscape rather than a realistic portrayal.
