Editor's Note:
The tragic story of Claude Lantier, an ambitious and talented young artist from the provinces who has come to conquer Paris and is conquered by the flaws in his own genius. While his boyhood friend Pierre Sandoz becomes a successful novelist, Claude’s originality is mocked at the Salon and turns gradually into a doomed obsession with one great canvas. Life—in the form of his model and wife Christine and their deformed child Jacques—is sacrificed on the altar of Art.The Masterpiece is the most autobiographical of the twenty novels in Zola’s Rougon-Macquart series and provides a unique insight into Zola’s relationship with Cézanne. It also presents a well-documented account of the turbulent Bohemian world in which the Impressionists came to the prominence despite the conservatism of the Academy and the ridicule of the general public.
