After meeting Émile Zola in the Bourbon College, Cézanne was encouraged to go deeper in his artistic career. Both of them had the idea of success in the industrial Paris. His father derailed his plans

the École des Beaux-Arts, where he stepped out of the traditional way of painting and invented his own way of painting through scientific technique of mixing colors. His techniques were beyond the styles of Impressionism, which was the most acquired art technique of that age.

The mention of “armies and fleets” is a way that the tyrant shows his power and

W.H. Auden’s poem, “Musée des Beaux Arts,” is clearly about suffering. However, Auden presents the idea of suffering in an uncommon, shrewdly observant manner by letting us know that the “Old Masters” have never been wrong about it (lines 10-12).

René Magritte was born in Lessines, Belgium in 1898. René Magritte later figured out he wanted to devote his life to art so he went to go study art at Academie des Beaux-Art. He left the school before finishing because he believed it was a waste of his time. After leaving school, he began to make paintings using cubism which was inspired by Pablo Picasso and he also imitated the art style of post impressionism (which was very famous for artists like Cezanne and Van Gogh).
