Google's Doodle for Wednesday.
Google bypassed the birthdays of Edgar Allen Poe and Janis Joplin Wednesday in order to honor the French painter. That’s saying something.
Google seems to be getting as prolific with its Doodles as some of the notable people it celebrates. Wednesday’s Doodle is no exception; Cézanne’s work has been credited with moving the art movement from Impressionism to the Cubism era of the 19th century.

Honoring his 172 birthday, Google’s logo was reportedly originally done as an oil painting before the image was transformed into digital form for use on their homepage. The image is in the modernist style that Cézanne himself used.
