Painting Description
"Boy in a Red Vest" (French: "Le Garçon au gilet rouge"), also known as "The Boy in the Red Waistcoat," is an oil painting by French artist Paul Cézanne, created circa 1888-1890. This work is one of Cézanne's most acclaimed portraits and is notable for its rich use of color and complex composition, which exemplifies the artist's transition from Impressionism to a more structured and form-oriented approach that would later influence the development of Cubism.
The painting depicts a young man seated in a relaxed pose, wearing a vibrant red vest that stands out against a muted background. The subject, identified as an Italian boy named Michelangelo di Rosa, is portrayed with a contemplative expression, his elbow resting on a table and his head supported by his hand. Cézanne's treatment of the figure demonstrates a mastery of form and a departure from the traditional methods of modeling in light and shadow, instead using patches of color to create volume and space.
"Boy in a Red Vest" is part of a series of four portraits that Cézanne painted of the same model, each showcasing the artist's interest in exploring different poses and moods. The painting's composition, with its carefully balanced color harmonies and geometric structuring, reflects Cézanne's desire to achieve a timeless quality in his work, an ambition that he famously articulated as wanting to "make of Impressionism something solid and durable, like the art of the museums."
The painting has a notable provenance, having been part of several important collections before finding its place in a public institution. It was stolen from a Swiss museum in 2008 and recovered in Serbia in 2012, an event that brought renewed attention to the work. Today, "Boy in a Red Vest" is held in the collection of the Foundation E.G. Bührle in Zurich and continues to be celebrated for its significant contribution to the evolution of modern art.
