Shortly before his death in 1906, Cézanne said to Émile Bernard: “I owe you truth in painting, and I will communicate it to you” (Je vous dois la vérité en peinture, et je vous la dirai)…. In fact, the question of “truth” (or of the “ideal formula”) for painting had long been on Cézanne’s mind. This had even been the subject of a fierce battle (that almost ended in a physical fight) between Cézanne & Paul Gauguin in 1881… In the end, Cézanne can be described as having coined a new conception of “truth”… the sources of this conception of truth originally derived from the group of Jena artists, critics, and philosophers who worked together in Germany in the 1790s (the Schlegel brothers, Novalis, Schelling, etc.).
