Which painting did Paul Cézanne create?

• A. The Dance Class
• B. Mr and Mrs Andrews
• C. Mont Sainte-Victoire
• D. Luncheon of the Boating Party

Answer: (C)

Mont Sainte-Victoire is a real mountain near Aix-en-Provence that Cézanne revisited repeatedly, turning it into a central study of how form and space are built with color. He painted it again and again from different viewpoints to explore how planes of color can model shapes and convey depth, a method that pushed painting toward modern abstraction and influenced later movements like Cubism. That persistent focus on this single subject is what makes it the Cézanne work in the list. The other titles belong to different artists—The Dance Class by Degas, Luncheon of the Boating Party by Renoir, and Mr and Mrs Andrews by Gainsborough—so they aren’t by Cézanne.
