FR Le Jas de Bouffan a inspiré à Paul Cézanne un nombre considérable d’oeuvres. Ancienne bastide du XVIIIe, elle devient propriété de la famille Cézanne le 15 septembre 1859. Agrémentée d’un parc, elle possède aussi un domaine agricole de 15 hectares.

C’est là que Cézanne fait ses débuts de peintre avec « les 4 saisons » et ses premiers portraits ; il y travaillera jusqu’en 1899. Le domaine est vendu en 1899 à Louis Granel, reste ensuite propriété de la famille Granel-Corsy.
