MUSÉE GRANET : French guided tour of the Exhibition Cezanne au Jas de Bouffan

Cezanne au Jas de Bouffan: an unmissable exhibition.
From June 28th to October 12th 2025

Musée Granet in Aix-en-Provence brings you the international Cezanne au Jas de Bouffan exhibition from June 28th to October 12th 2025. Jas de Bouffan is more than a home; it’s an artistic laboratory where Cezanne experimented with his work for almost 40 years. The retrospective’s outstanding selection of a hundred paintings, drawings and watercolours takes you on a deep dive into the artist’s private life and reveals his close bond with the family home.

What to expect from the exhibition

The Cezanne au Jas de Bouffan summer exhibition has a themed trail exploring work the artist did at the family home in Aix-en-Provence between 1860 and 1899. The manor was more than a home; it became Cezanne’s creative studio where he experimented with the techniques and themes that became his signature.

Masterpieces on display

The retrospective showcases a hundred pieces illustrating just how much the house influenced his art. It presents Cezanne’s favourite themes: Provençal landscapes, self-portraits, the famous bathers and still lifes in oil and watercolour.

The exhibition’s masterpieces include the iconic The Four Seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, Bather and the Rocks, Game of Hide and Seek (based on Lancret), Self-Portrait in Front of a Pink Background, The Card Players, Still Life with Cherries and Peaches and The Bathers.

The exhibition displays pieces loaned by world-renowned museums in Paris, New York, Tokyo and London, giving you a fascinating insight into Cezanne, from his youth to his greatest masterpieces.
