The Musee d’Orsay from 28 February to 28 May 2006 presents works of two great artists - Cezanne and Pissarro. The museum has chosen to dedicate an exhibition to them in order to highlight the similarities in their work from the start of their respective careers until the mid-1880s. The exhibition covers two decades - 1865-1885. Portraits, still-lifes and landscapes by both artists are brought together to demonstrate the similarity of their vision in 1875. Later, Cezanne reinterpreted some of Pissarro's earlier compositions and took up some of his elder's previously adopted viewpoints. The juxtaposition of their work highlights the "kinship" in their approach to subjects, which was highly significant in perpetuating the enduring links that united the two artists.
