After Cezanne is a large irregular shaped obtuse painting begun in 1999 and completed in 2000 by the British artist Lucian Freud. The top left section of this painting has been 'grafted' on to the main section below, and closer inspection reveals a horizontal line where these two sections were joined.[1]
After Cézanne, Lucian Freud, 1999–2000
The crease where the two parts of the painting were joined is visible as a faint horizontal line running through the woman just above the tray she is carrying.
The painting is one in a select group of canvases where Freud engages in a dialogue with past masters, this work being a variation on a theme of the work L'Après-midi à Naples ('Afternoon in Naples'; circa 1875) by the French Post-Impressionist painter Paul Cézanne.[2]
