For your records and consideration

I had purchased this from a resale boutique shop in St. Louis Missouri, united states in 2011.  Here in 2021  i have identified it as being  that of cezannes uncle., most likely a 'second' an 'after'. A student of paintings study through emulation……

However as i was looking at https://www.cezannecatalogue.com/section/?id=links

I noticed that cezanne himself would rework the same composition across many different canvases.  

Thus i am sharing my version of l'homme au bonnet de coton(l'oncle dominique) for your consideration and records in case there is any infinitesimal chance that this 'second' is by cezanne himself.

Feel free to contact me.
