This painting used to be in the famous collection of Gertrude and Leo Stein, the expatriate siblings who were at the center of the Parisian avant-garde in the early 20th century. Cézanne depicts a springhouse—a small building constructed over a natural water source and used either for refrigeration or as a pumping station. Paint is applied in short, parallel strokes, and in some places the color is so thin that the canvas shows through.
