This Paul Cézanne drawing (circa 1900) was discovered on the back of the watercolor “Trees.”
Unfinished sketches by the famed French artist Paul Cezanne have been found hidden on the backs of two of his watercolors.
The Pennsylvanian-based Barnes Foundation museum, said the sketches, one graphite and one watercolor, likely have not been seen since the early 20th century.
