Summary/Abstract: Maurice Merleau-Ponty outlined a new ontology based on analyses of sensual experience. In his philosophy he used Paul Cézanne’s paintings interpreted as an attempt to record the primeval experience of the world. The world studied by the painter is a constantly emerging and not a permanently existing one. Its hidden principle is, therefore, movement which remains impossible to perpetuate both in philosophy and in painting. The portrayal of movement has been the intention of artists upon many occasions, but this problem requires a separate study.
