Joachim Gasquet

Joachim Gasquet (1873–1921) was a French writer, poet, and art critic born in Aix-en-Provence, Bouches-du-Rhône. He is best known for his writing about the artists of his era, particularly Paul Cézanne, who was his friend.[1] His 1921 book Cézanne is a testament to the life of the artist, whose work Gasquet had known since an 1895 exhibition at Aix-en-Provence.

He married Marie Gasquet in 1896.
