Madame Cézanne (Hortense Fiquet, 1850–1922) in a Red Dress, painted by Paul Cézanne in 1888–90, is the most elaborately staged of the four portraits he made of his wife wearing this same shawl-collared red dress. Seated in a high-backed yellow chair, Hortense is wedged into a tilting, spatially ambiguous interior — the mottled blue wall, dark wainscoting, and mirrored fireplace identify the setting as the Cézannes' rented apartment at 15 quai d'Anjou in Paris.
Cézanne treats his wife less as a psychological subject than as a formal anchor within a deliberately unstable pictorial space, bending furniture and architecture to follow the rhythm of her seated form. This tension between the human figure and constructed space is precisely what made Cézanne, in the following generation, the artist Picasso and Braque would call the father of Cubism.
Held in the collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, this masterwork is presented here as a premium stretched canvas reproduction, printed on museum-quality matte canvas and hand-wrapped around a solid 0.75-inch gallery wrap frame — ready to hang and built to last.
