Seated Peasant is a late 19th-century painting by Paul Cézanne. Done in oil on canvas, the work depicts a seated peasant, likely a worker at Jas de Bouffan, Cézanne's family estate in Aix-en-Provence. The painting's age is unknown but credibly dated between 1892 and 1896.[1] It is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[2]
