"The Basket of Apples" is one of Paul Cézanne's most celebrated still lifes, notable for its deliberately skewed perspective — the table edge does not line up, and objects seem to defy a single fixed viewpoint — a departure from traditional single-point perspective that fascinated later modernist painters. Cézanne painted apples and other fruit repeatedly throughout his career, treating still life as a rigorous laboratory for studying color, volume, and structure. The painting's radical spatial construction is often cited as a direct precursor to Cubism.
