Cezanne

I guess why I keep it up there, being it's not a sheep photo I like that well, is that its busyness and complemented color remind me of Cezanne paintings of Mont Sainte-Victoire near his home and studio in Aix, and those studies for the rock-like Les Baigneuses that he did later.
I like pilgimages and I took the train down to Provence from Paris in the late 70's. I read that when Cezanne was an old man, boys threw stones at him when he walked along to where he could set up his easel in the countryside.
