Bellows in Front of a Fireplace

Paul Cezanne

National Gallery of Art

The sketch shows a large folded umbrella with a handle positioned diagonally across the center of the page. The color palette consists of pencil shades of gray. In the background are loosely sketched shapes resembling an apple and other indistinct objects. The handle is pointed upwards and slightly to the right, while the fabric of the umbrella drapes downwards towards the bottom left corner of the page.
