Cezanne (1989-January 15, 2012)

Cezanne passed away on January 15th at Hawkeye Stables in Maryland after a three week battle with colic.  Cezanne was born on Assateague and as such was not a Misty descendant, but he was a member of the extended family.  He sired a number of Misty descendants during his years at the Allen farm.  Cezanne was a prolific and influential sire of both of Misty ponies and regular Chincoteagues.

Friend of Misty's Heaven Celina Calvo Boltinghouse took this photo of young Cezanne and his dam on Assateague

Cezanne was owned by painter Kevin McBride who included the stallion in many of his paintings.  McBride's 2001 Pony Penning print depicted Cezanne with Misty's Black Mist and their daughter Misty's Morning Glory and his 2005 Pony Penning print features Cezanne's five foals that he sired in 2004, including Misty's Storm Chaser and Misty's Cloudbursts.

 Misty's Desert Sun and Cezanne, they produced three foals together

Cezanne was a favorite of both of us here at Misty's Heaven; for his handsome looks, personality, and the lovely foals he sired.
